For the 113th consecutive day, Israeli occupation forces have sustained their military offensive against Jenin city and its refugee camp in the northern West Bank. The troops have intensified demolition efforts within the camp, with the stated goal of altering its layout and destroying its infrastructure, while enforcing a stringent blockade that prevents any access.
On Monday morning, occupation forces abducted a young man at the entrance to the Jenin refugee camp, detaining him and restraining his hands.
Also Monday morning, the soldiers assaulted a Palestinian man at the main entrance of the Jenin refugee camp.
Local sources reported that soldiers detained the young man near Jenin Governmental Hospital, cuffed him before physically assaulting him, causing numerous cuts and bruises.
The assault comes as Israeli forces continue their 113-day-long military offensive against Jenin city and its refugee camp. The operation has involved home demolitions, live-fire attacks, and drone surveillance, with the refugee camp remaining under a strict blockade.
On Sunday evening, forces entered the towns of Arabah, Arbouna, Jilqamous, and Arrana. Infantry units moved through the streets and blocked civilian vehicle traffic at the entrance to the village of Arbouna.
Villages across the Jenin governorate are now experiencing near-daily incursions as military operations against both the city and the refugee camp continue unabated.
Extensive deployments have been observed in most villages, with a constant presence of patrols and armored vehicles.
Additionally, Israeli troops stormed the residence of citizen Imad Al-Sa’adi in the Al-Jabriyyat neighborhood, and ransacked the property.
Meanwhile, the forces persist in keeping the Jenin refugee camp completely sealed off while carrying out relentless demolition attacks of dozens of homes, structures and massive destruction of infrastructure.
According to Jenin Municipality estimates, roughly 600 homes within the refugee camp have been entirely demolished, and many others have sustained partial damage that now renders them uninhabitable.
Jenin city itself has suffered significant damage to its facilities, homes, and infrastructure, particularly in its eastern neighborhoods and the Al-Hadaf area.
Families residing in the refugee camp, along with hundreds of households from Jenin and its surroundings, remain forcibly displaced.
Municipal reports indicate that the total number of displaced individuals from both the camp and the city now exceeds 22,000.
The economic situation in Jenin is deteriorating rapidly; the ongoing aggression has resulted in massive commercial losses, numerous businesses have shuttered, shopper traffic from outside the city has declined sharply, and widespread destruction of infrastructure and streets, particularly in the western neighborhoods, has nearly incapacitated local commerce. Early estimates suggest that these operations have incurred losses exceeding $300 million.
Since the military offensive against Jenin city and its refugee camp began on January 21, 2025, 41 Palestinians have been killed, along with dozens sustaining injuries and scores abducted, underscoring the severe impact of the continued aggression.
