On Sunday night into the pre-dawn hours of Monday morning, the Israeli occupation forces invaded Palestinian villages and towns in the Nablus district and Jenin district, bulldozing Palestinian homes and land, and abducting Palestinians from their homes.
The invading troops bulldozed infrastructure and agricultural lands in the villages of Jalboun and Faqu’a, northeast of Jenin.
Ibrahim Abu al-Rub, head of the Jalboun village council, told the Palestinian news agency Wafa that the Israeli occupation forces, accompanied by a military bulldozer, stormed the village from the northern side, bulldozing agricultural crops, electricity poles, and parts of the main street 60 meters long and 10 meters wide.
Abu Al-Rub added that the Israeli occupation forces continued for the eighth consecutive day to storm the village and turn a house located near the Girls’ Primary School into a military point, belonging to the citizen Rafi Rafiq Abu Al-Rub, pointing out that the irregularity of classes in the village was announced tomorrow, in coordination with the Directorate of Education in Jenin, due to the incursions of the Israeli occupation forces.
He pointed out that a state of fear prevails among citizens as a result of the continuous incursions, which include arrests, raids on homes and the erection of military checkpoints, in addition to the exposure of the village built on its lands, the colony of “Merav”, to bullets from inside the colony towards homes.
The Israeli occupation forces also bulldozed agricultural land in the village of Faqu’a. The head of the village council, Barakat al-Omari, told the Wafa news agency that the Israeli occupation forces, accompanied by a military bulldozer, stormed the village from the eastern side, adjacent to the separation wall and apartheid expansion, bulldozing agricultural land and building a road in it to reach the main street in the village.
