The Israeli army has launched several new raids through the occupied West Bank, intensifying a month -long operation that killed hundreds of people and moved thousands of people.
During the Sunday and Monday raids, Israeli tanks were deployed in the Palestinian territory occupied for the first time in more than two decades.
Reports that the army plans to open up military corridors in the suggested West Bank An extended and enlarged campaign.
The International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) took the alarm to the deterioration of the situation, saying that winter times were more difficult for the displaced Palestinians to survive.
“Many people have fled their house to take refuge, including crowded mosques and schools. With many damaged or destroyed houses, people have trouble accessing basic needs such as drinking water, food, medical care and refuge, “the ICRC said on Monday.
“Improved civilians also find it difficult to find information on family members who have disappeared or could have been detained.”
Tens of thousands of Palestinians were moved through the West Bank since the Israeli army launched its increased offensive last month. The operation began shortly after a Gaza cease-fire agreement entered into force on January 19.
Monday’s raids hit areas through the territory while bulldozers and armored vehicles continued to beat the northern areas of Jenin and Tulkarem’s West Bank, where there are large refugee camps.
The soldiers would have stormed Jenin of the West, besieging the refugee camp and the adjacent areas.
They also imposed a curfew in the city of Qabatiya, south of Jenin, for a second consecutive day and stormed the neighboring cities of Al-Yamoun and Burqin.
The al-Quds brigades, the armed wing of the Palestinian Islamic jihad, reported on Telegram that she was fighting with the Israeli forces of Jenin.
“The Palestinians who have been forced from their home in the occupied West Bank go wherever they can – community centers, shelters, family and friends in neighboring towns and villages, which are now also attacked,” Odeh of Tel Aviv Tribune.
Fear of a bigger climb
Hamas, the Palestinian authority, neighboring Jordan and the Arab League called on Monday for the intensification of attacks.
Brazil has also urged a complete suspension of Israeli military attacks and access to international aid without hindrance to the occupied territory.
The deployment of Israeli tanks in the West Bank is a worrying sign, Odeh said.
Reporting of Amman, Jordan, because Tel Aviv Tribune is prohibited from Israel and the West Bank by the Israeli government and the Palestinian authority, Odeh noted that the Israeli media have cited sources close to the Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu , describing the army plans.
“The Israeli media cite sources close to the Prime Minister saying that the army intends to create large corridors in Tulkarem and Jenin – recalling the so -called Netzarim corridor in Gaza – to allow free movement for its forces And her heavy equipment, ”she said.
The Israeli-established netzarim corridor and caused a bisseté Gaza and prevented the displaced Palestinians from returning home.
We feared that a similar tactic in the West Bank illustrates a plan to extend and extend the current operation.
Hamas, which, with the Palestinian authority, condemned Israel for assaults in the West Bank, said that Israel’s wish to stay is “an illusion that will not come true”.
The Palestinian authority called for an urgent international intervention to “slow down the uncontrolled aggression of Israel” and its efforts to pursue the “genocide” against the Palestinians.
More than 40,000 people were moved to Jenin and Tulkarem, including his NUR Shams refugee camp, by the current Israeli operation.
The Israeli Minister of Defense Israel Katz confirmed the number on Sunday, adding that the army intended to stay in the camps to prevent the return of residents.
The United Nations Secretary General Antonio Guterres did the alarm on the Israeli attacks on the West Bank on Monday while warning against a return to the fighting in Gaza.
“I am seriously concerned about growing violence in the West Bank occupied by Israeli colonists and other violations as well as calls to annexation,” he said.
The Israeli settlers, which are often supported by armed soldiers, carry out daily attacks on the occupied territory.
The videos published by Palestinian points of sale from night to Monday showed colonists scribbling a David star and Hebrew graffiti on a Palestinian property and lighting a fire during an attack on agricultural land east of Yatta in the governorate of Hebron.
