Jenin: Israeli occupation continues its aggression on the city and camp of Jenin for the 93rd consecutive day, amidst bulldozing and burning homes, and converting others into military points. According to Palestine News and Information Agency - WAFA, the occupation forces have intensified their operations with the installation of an iron gate near the Return Roundabout west of the camp. An explosion was heard deep inside the camp, which remains off-limits to outsiders. Jenin Mayor Muhammad Jarrar reported that bulldozers continue demolition operations inside the camp amid a total media blackout. Approximately 600 homes have been completely destroyed, with all other homes in the camp partially destroyed and deemed uninhabitable. Efforts are underway to provide temporary mobile homes for the 21,000 displaced persons. Since the onset of the aggression, 39 citizens have lost their lives, with dozens more injured or arrested. Yesterday, Hebrew media circulated a photo of occupation soldiers inside the Grand Mos que in the camp, further highlighting the intensity of the military operations.
