The ongoing Israeli military operations in Jenin and Hebron have resulted in significant casualties, with 22 Palestinians reported dead and three Israeli officers killed. The humanitarian crisis deepens as access to medical facilities is obstructed, prompting calls for respect for humanitarian obligations.


Escalating Violence in Jenin and Hebron

The Israeli army has intensified its military operations in the city of Jenin and its camp, marking the fifth consecutive day of violent clashes and resistance ambushes. The ongoing conflict has resulted in the deaths of 22 Palestinians, as reported by local sources. The situation escalated further with an armed attack on Israeli police officers, leading to the deaths of three officers in an incident west of Hebron. The Palestinian Red Crescent reported injuries among civilians as Israeli forces continue to engage with resistance fighters in the area.

Humanitarian Crisis Amidst Military Operations

The conflict has not only claimed lives but has also created a dire humanitarian crisis. Reports indicate that Israeli forces are obstructing access to medical facilities, including the besieged Khalil Suleiman Hospital in Jenin. Medical humanitarian organizations like Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) have called on Israel to respect its obligations as an occupying power, emphasizing the need to protect hospitals and ensure ambulances can operate freely. The siege on hospitals has resulted in the suspension of critical medical services, including kidney dialysis, exacerbating the suffering of the local population.

Arrests and Increased Tensions in the West Bank

The Israeli military operations have led to a wave of arrests across the West Bank, with reports indicating that 110 Palestinians have been detained since the onset of the military campaign. Among those arrested are journalists and students, highlighting the broad impact of the conflict on various segments of society. As tensions rise, the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) has called for an escalation of operations against Israeli forces, indicating that the cycle of violence may continue to intensify.

  • The mayor of Jenin described the destruction caused by the Israeli army as akin to an 'earthquake,' reflecting the extensive damage to infrastructure and civilian property. Palestinian platforms have shared footage showing the ongoing siege and the impact on daily life in Jenin, where residents face significant challenges due to military operations. The situation remains fluid, with both sides bracing for further developments as the conflict continues.
