Israeli forces detonated, on Thursday, a Palestinian-owned home in the Tulkarem refugee camp in the northwestern West Bank city of Tulkarem.

Media sources said that occupation forces wired and detonated, on Thursday afternoon the home of the Doush family, in the schools neighborhood of the Tulkarem refugee camp.


Sources added that the explosion caused several citizens to sustain inhalation injuries in addition to damaging neighboring homes.

The Palestinian Red Crescent Society (PRCS) said that their ambulance crews were able to transport the injured citizens and other sick patients out of the camp to the hospital.

Soldiers invaded and searched several homes in the Schools and Akasha neighborhoods, detained and interrogated their residents, and assaulted young men.

The army continued to besiege the Tulkarem camp, pushing military reinforcements to the camp, while bulldozers continued to destroy the camp’s infrastructure.

Earlier Thursday, occupation forces re-invaded the city of Tulkarem and the Tulkarem camp, just hours after withdrawing.
