The operation focuses on Jenin, with simultaneous actions in other cities like Tubas, Nablus, Ramallah, and Tulkarem. Israel justifies the operation as a fight against Palestinian resistance groups like the Jenin Brigades. Civilian Infrastructure Destroyed: Israeli forces heavily damaged civilian infrastructure in Jenin refugee camp, described as a form of collective punishment.Bulldozers and armored vehicles destroyed homes, streets, and markets. 70% of camp streets and surrounding areas were bulldozed. The refugee camp has been turned into a battlefield, forcing residents to stay indoors. Siege on Jenin: The siege blocked access to essential resources like water, food, and medicine. Civilians, including children, the elderly, and the chronically ill, have been trapped inside without help. Some women and children managed to escape at gunpoint, while men and boys were detained. Mass Arrests and Human Rights Violations: Israeli forces carried out mass arrests of men and boys, including 72-year-old Khayriyeh Khrayneh’s family members. Her husband (a diabetic) and eldest son (a cancer patient) were arrested despite needing medical care. Eyewitnesses described brutal tactics: Palestinian detainees were used as human shields, and attack dogs were unleashed on families. Journalists and media correspondants are systematically threatened by Israeli vehicles or reckless shooting. Blocking Medical Access: Ambulances were denied entry to the camp, and paramedics were shot at, preventing the retrieval of bodies. The main hospital in Jenin was put under lockdown by Israeli Border Police, turning the surrounding area into a "closed military zone." Even when ambulances were allowed through, they were stopped, and patients were forced to show ID before being admitted. Deaths and Casualties: At least 19 Palestinians were killed in Jenin during the siege, including minors. An 83-year-old man, Tawfiq Qandeel, was shot by Israeli forces and left to die without medical help. His body was later run over by military vehicles. Three Palestinian children were killed when their vespa was bombed while delivering bread to the residents of Jenin. Since October 2023, nearly 700 Palestinians have been killed in the West Bank, with 185 in Jenin alone. Brutality of Military Tactics: The operation in Jenin involved anti-tank rifle grenades destroying civilian infrastructure, sporadic gunfire, and drones flying overhead (likely for surveillance or attacks). Civilians described widespread fear and destruction, with Israeli soldiers using homes as military outposts and placing snipers on rooftops. Worsening Humanitarian Crisis: The Israeli military siege left Jenin and nearby cities under curfew, with road closures and checkpoints stifling movement for both residents and journalists. Palestinians were unable to access basic necessities like flour and baby food due to the complete lockdown of the city. Medical staff, such as nurses, reported being unable to go home for days due to the danger posed by the military operation. Israeli Justification: Israeli military leadership stated their intention to target Palestinian armed resistance, stating they would move "from city to city, refugee camp to refugee camp." But despite their claims of targeting militants, the majority of the casualties were civilians, deepening resentment among the Palestinian population and increasing support for resistance groups. Collective Punishment and Civilian Displacement: Civilians in Jenin reported feeling that the military operations were designed to push them out of their homes . Jenin’s residents are increasingly describing the siege as an effort to depopulate the area . Residents drew comparisons between the treatment of Jenin and Gaza, seeing the same tactics of displacement and destruction being used in both regions. Source :

Furthermore, civilians discovered that the IDF severed the connection between South and Central Gaza by land bulldozing Salah El-Din road, which serves to connect Al-Qarara with Deir al-Balah.

Israeli Civil Administration took control of Tulkarm from the military government. : After the Oslo Accords, control of Tulkarm was transferred to the Palestinian National Authority (PNA) on December 10, becoming the third city from which Israeli forces withdrew. Early 2000s : During the Second Intifada, Israel temporarily reoccupied Tulkarm : Israeli military administration ended, and control of Tulkarm was returned to the PNA , which imposed new weapons restrictions on militants. October 19, 2023 : The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) re-entered Tulkarm. Israel carries out very frequent raids there and the agricultural lands are subject to frequent attacks by settlers and soldiers. Since August 28, 2024 , Israel has launched a large-scale offensive on various cities in the northern West Bank, called "Operation Summer Camp" What is Israel Doing to Palestinians in Tulkarm? Frequent Israeli Raids: Tulkarm, a city and refugee camp in the occupied West Bank, faces near-daily Israeli raids . Israel claims these operations target militants, particularly from Hamas’ military wing, the Qassam Brigades. However, these raids involve significant destruction of civilian infrastructure. Destruction of Homes and Infrastructure: During the raids, Israeli forces deploy bulldozers to destroy large residential areas, schools, and hospitals . Homes are set on fire, and Israeli troops reportedly prevent local relief workers from extinguishing these blazes. Collective Punishment Tactics: This destruction aims to collectively punish the population, according to experts, in response to pockets of armed resistance against the Israeli occupation. Following the Activist Shadi Abdullah , who documents Israeli abuses, Israeli forces used to demolish homes intentionally cut off basic necessities such as water and electricity. Israeli soldiers cooperate with illegal settlers to attack civilians, adding to the fear and hardship faced by Palestinians in Tulkarm. Civilian Impact: Civilians in Tulkarm are constantly at risk from both Israeli forces and settlers, as the city lies between several Israeli settlements. The destruction of residential areas forces Palestinians into overcrowded, remaining safe zones, further increasing the already high population density due to previous displacements. Strategic Importance of Tulkarm: Tulkarm holds strategic value for its fertile agricultural land and access to natural water resources. However, the illegal Israeli settlements have appropriated much of this land, forcing Palestinian farmers to rely on expensive tanker water and rainwater collection systems. Role of Drones and Heavy Weaponry: Drones play a key role in Israeli raids, providing air cover and targeting Palestinian fighters. Israel has used drones extensively in other West Bank cities like Jenin and Nur Shams, where they killed several Palestinians in July, Augustus and September, since the beginning of "Operation Summer Camp" Israel’s use of drones, bulldozers, and heavy military equipment is part of a broader strategy to instill fear in younger generations and suppress armed resistance. However, this tactic has not succeeded in demoralizing the civilian population, who continue to support the resistance movement as part of the broader struggle against Israeli occupation.

Alice Kisiya about her experience with the illegal settlers who forcefully evicted her family [Original post] “Some settlers are 12 years, 13. Most of them are minors with knives” Palestinian activist Alice Kisiya tells TRT World about her experience with the Israeli army-backed illegal settlers who forcefully evicted her and her family from their home [Tags: Soldiers and Settlers, Shops, Demolition Order, Home Theft, Living conditions, Property, Land theft] [Found by: TRT] [Location: West Bank > Bethlehem > Al-Makhrour > Beit Jala] [Archivist Notes] The Christian Qaisiya (Kisiya) family owned land in al-Makhrour valley, near Beit Jala, in the occupied West Bank. She had a successful restaurant on their five dunams (5,000 square meters) of land, which was established in 2005. They later built a nearby house for residential purposes in 2010. Alice Qaisiya, the daughter of this family became a symbolic figure of the Palestinian resistance against the land theft and the settlement. Historical and Legal Context: The restaurant was built partially within an old mudbrick structure predating 1967, which the family argued did not require permits. The Israeli authorities, through the Coordinator of Government Activities in the Territories (COGAT), maintained that permits were necessary. The property faced legal challenges from Haminuta, a subsidiary of the Keren Kayemeth LeIsrael-Jewish National Fund (KKL-JNF), which claimed ownership of the land based on a supposed purchase dating back to 1969. However, this claim was contentious due to incomplete land registration in the area, raising concerns of possible mistakes or forgery. The al-Makhrour hill is strategically valuable for connecting Israeli settlements, such as Gush Etzion and Har Gilo, to Jerusalem. Activists argue that this plan is part of the broader 'Greater Jerusalem'project, aimed at consolidating Israeli control and isolating Palestinian villages from Bethlehem. Activists like Hagit Ofran from the Peace Now group emphasized the demolition's significance in disconnecting Palestinian territories and preventing the establishment of a cohesive Palestinian state. Palestinian activist Hasan Breijeh highlighted that the demolitions aim to pressure families into abandoning their land, aligning with a broader strategy of territorial consolidation for Israeli settlements. The community's efforts to resist these measures include public advocacy, legal battles, and a strong presence on contested land. Home demolitions in the occupied territories violate international law, specifically the fourth Geneva Convention, which prohibits altering the conditions on the ground in occupied areas. Demolition by Israeli Forces: The restaurant was previously dismantled in 2012 and 2013 , with the family rebuilding each time. On a Monday morning in August 2019 , the Israeli military demolished the family’s restaurant and home. The stated reason was the lack of a proper construction permit, which is a frequent justification used by Israeli authorities for demolitions in the West Bank. The demolition took place despite a notice from the Israeli High Court calling for a delay, which was ignored by the military commander on site. On Augustus 9, 2024 Israeli settlers invaded the Qaisiya properties supported by Israeli soldiers. on Augustus 26, 2024 Pastor Munther Isaac @MuntherIsaac "Today I visited the Qaisiya family. There were forcebly expelled from their land by the Israeli military, and now they are staying in a tent outside of their land. They were attacked by settlers, and Alice the daughter was arrested, (she was released for now today). In the tent I also met Israeli activists for peace who are in solidarity with the family from Combatants For Peace, and young men from Masafir Yatta who are facing similar challenges and came as well to show solidarity. It was powerful to see Jews and Muslims in solidarity with this Christian family from Bethlehem. Please pray and advocate for this family. I took a picture of the official document that prove their ownership of the land. What the Qaisiya family is facing is what we as Palestinians have been enduring for 76 years, namely: Ethnic cleansing. This is what the settler activity is all about." On November 3, 2024 Alice Qaisiya was arrested, for the second time this year, by the Israeli security forces, according to savealmakhrour "Fresh out of hospital for knee surgery, still on crutches, she was attacked by armed settlers and then taken into custody by the IOF (*video of her arrest is in our most recent Reel). We ask our global community and friends to raise your voices of concern, call representatives, notify embassies, notify organisations and organising groups ... and pray. Pray for her safety and quick release ... and continue to pray for justice to come to Al-Makhrour and all of Palestine." On november 29, 2024 The Israeli army arrested Palestinian Christian Alice QaIsiyia and her mother for visiting their own land, which was stolen by Israeli settler. Source : Impact on the Family and Community: Despite the repeated setbacks, the Qaisyehs, led by Ramzi and supported by his daughter Alice, remained resilient. Alice expressed the emotional toll but asserted that they were "not defeated." The family, supported by the local community, set up tents on the land and vowed to rebuild. "In this Palestinian valley west of Bethlehem, which in 2014 became a UNESCO World Heritage Site due to its its olive groves and vineyards, the Qaisiya family's restaurant is nothing more than a pile of ruins topped by fences. It was a restaurant appreciated for its cuisine and friendliness in the Palestinian Christian town of Beit Jala. "The place is beautiful, the food succulent and the owners are adorable [...]. If you're passing through Beit Jala, a stop at Al Makhrour is a must," a comment from 2015 reads on its Facebook page. Ramzi Qaisiya who had inherited the land opened a restaurant in 2001 there with his wife and their four children. For years, hundreds of tourists passing through Bethlehem stopped there for a salad before continuing their hike in the green valleys. For a long time, the Makhrour valley was untouched by uncontrolled Israeli settlements, but the trouble began in 2012 when an Israeli outpost - a settlement not authorised by the government - was built there. The settlers demolished the restaurant, claiming it belonged to the JNF. The Qaisiya family, who insist otherwise, rebuilt their restaurant before it was demolished again in 2013 and then again in 2015. In 2019 the family decided to take the case to court to have their rights heard. But in 2023, a civil court in Jerusalem validated the expropriation. In a bid to prevent the family's restaurant from being rebuilt again, the Israeli army declared the site to be a "closed military zone", which prevented anyone from entering it until this past summer, when Israeli settlers backed by soldiers destroyed it once again. Israeli settlers backed by the army seized the 5,000 square- metre plot on July 31 and evicted the French-Palestinian family. "We are being targeted because we reject the government's Zionist policy," said Michelle Qaisiya. Expulsions of Palestinians from their land in West Bank have increased, particularly since Israel's far-right government came to power in 2022. The situation has sharply deteriorated since Israel's invasion of Gaza last year." from hiddenpalestine To go further :

It can cause difficulty breathing and irreversible paralysis, usually in the legs. It strikes young children in particular and is sometimes fatal. Chronology June 19 : Gaza’s Ministry of Health said it had detected “component poliovirus type 2” in coordination with UNICEF, the United Nations children’s agency End of July : The World Health Organization is “extremely worried” about the possibility of an outbreak of the highly infectious polio virus in Gaza after traces were found in wastewater. Immunisation rates in Gaza and the occupied West Bank were optimal before the conflict. Polio vaccine coverage was estimated at 99% in 2022, although it had declined to 89% last year, according to the latest data. the “decimation” of Gaza health system" - with only 16 out of the territory's 36 hospitals partially functional - as well as the "lack of security, access obstruction, constant population displacement, shortages of medical supplies, poor quality of water and weakened sanitation" have contributed to reduce immunisation rates and increase the risk of diseases spreading. First case at the end of July : According to the WHO, a 10-month-old baby had been paralysed by the type-2 strand of the virus - the first case in Gaza in 25 years. Augustus 29 : Israel and Hamas have agreed to brief ceasefires in parts of Gaza to allow the safe distribution of the polio vaccine, according to the World Health Organization (WHO). These pauses will begin Sunday and occur in three phases: central Gaza first, then the south, and finally the north. Each pause will last three days, from 6am to 3pm, and may extend to a fourth day if necessary. Vaccination Campaign planning The WHO and partners are launching a campaign to vaccinate 640,000 children in Gaza against polio, despite the ongoing war and damaged healthcare system.

Israeli Civil Administration took control of Tulkarm from the military government. : After the Oslo Accords, control of Tulkarm was transferred to the Palestinian National Authority (PNA) on December 10, becoming the third city from which Israeli forces withdrew. Early 2000s : During the Second Intifada, Israel temporarily reoccupied Tulkarm : Israeli military administration ended, and control of Tulkarm was returned to the PNA , which imposed new weapons restrictions on militants. October 19, 2023 : The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) re-entered Tulkarm. Israel carries out very frequent raids there and the agricultural lands are subject to frequent attacks by settlers and soldiers. Since August 28, 2024 , Israel has launched a large-scale offensive on various cities in the northern West Bank, called "Operation Summer Camp" What is Israel Doing to Palestinians in Tulkarm? Frequent Israeli Raids: Tulkarm, a city and refugee camp in the occupied West Bank, faces near-daily Israeli raids . Israel claims these operations target militants, particularly from Hamas’ military wing, the Qassam Brigades. However, these raids involve significant destruction of civilian infrastructure. Destruction of Homes and Infrastructure: During the raids, Israeli forces deploy bulldozers to destroy large residential areas, schools, and hospitals . Homes are set on fire, and Israeli troops reportedly prevent local relief workers from extinguishing these blazes. Collective Punishment Tactics: This destruction aims to collectively punish the population, according to experts, in response to pockets of armed resistance against the Israeli occupation. Following the Activist Shadi Abdullah , who documents Israeli abuses, Israeli forces used to demolish homes intentionally cut off basic necessities such as water and electricity. Israeli soldiers cooperate with illegal settlers to attack civilians, adding to the fear and hardship faced by Palestinians in Tulkarm. Civilian Impact: Civilians in Tulkarm are constantly at risk from both Israeli forces and settlers, as the city lies between several Israeli settlements. The destruction of residential areas forces Palestinians into overcrowded, remaining safe zones, further increasing the already high population density due to previous displacements. Strategic Importance of Tulkarm: Tulkarm holds strategic value for its fertile agricultural land and access to natural water resources. However, the illegal Israeli settlements have appropriated much of this land, forcing Palestinian farmers to rely on expensive tanker water and rainwater collection systems. Role of Drones and Heavy Weaponry: Drones play a key role in Israeli raids, providing air cover and targeting Palestinian fighters. Israel has used drones extensively in other West Bank cities like Jenin and Nur Shams, where they killed several Palestinians in July, Augustus and September, since the beginning of "Operation Summer Camp" Israel’s use of drones, bulldozers, and heavy military equipment is part of a broader strategy to instill fear in younger generations and suppress armed resistance. However, this tactic has not succeeded in demoralizing the civilian population, who continue to support the resistance movement as part of the broader struggle against Israeli occupation.

Homes are set on fire, and Israeli troops reportedly prevent local relief workers from extinguishing these blazes. Collective Punishment Tactics: This destruction aims to collectively punish the population, according to experts, in response to pockets of armed resistance against the Israeli occupation. Following the Activist Shadi Abdullah , who documents Israeli abuses, Israeli forces used to demolish homes intentionally cut off basic necessities such as water and electricity. Israeli soldiers cooperate with illegal settlers to attack civilians, adding to the fear and hardship faced by Palestinians in Tulkarm. Civilian Impact: Civilians in Tulkarm are constantly at risk from both Israeli forces and settlers, as the city lies between several Israeli settlements. The destruction of residential areas forces Palestinians into overcrowded, remaining safe zones, further increasing the already high population density due to previous displacements. Strategic Importance of Tulkarm: Tulkarm holds strategic value for its fertile agricultural land and access to natural water resources. However, the illegal Israeli settlements have appropriated much of this land, forcing Palestinian farmers to rely on expensive tanker water and rainwater collection systems. Role of Drones and Heavy Weaponry: Drones play a key role in Israeli raids, providing air cover and targeting Palestinian fighters. Israel has used drones extensively in other West Bank cities like Jenin and Nur Shams, where they killed several Palestinians in July, Augustus and September, since the beginning of "Operation Summer Camp" Israel’s use of drones, bulldozers, and heavy military equipment is part of a broader strategy to instill fear in younger generations and suppress armed resistance. However, this tactic has not succeeded in demoralizing the civilian population, who continue to support the resistance movement as part of the broader struggle against Israeli occupation.

Report on the Christian Kisiya family's struggle for their home and land [Original post] Settlers took over a Palestinian Christian family’s home, so the family set up a tent outside and refused to leave. [Tags: Soldiers and Settlers, Shops, Agriculture, Demolition Order, Home Theft, Living conditions, Property, Land theft] [Found by: Al Jazeera] [Location: West Bank > Bethlehem > Al-Makhrour > Beit Jala] [Archivist Notes] The Christian Qaisiya (Kisiya) family owned land in al-Makhrour valley, near Beit Jala, in the occupied West Bank. She had a successful restaurant on their five dunams (5,000 square meters) of land, which was established in 2005. They later built a nearby house for residential purposes in 2010. Alice Qaisiya, the daughter of this family became a symbolic figure of the Palestinian resistance against the land theft and the settlement. Historical and Legal Context: The restaurant was built partially within an old mudbrick structure predating 1967, which the family argued did not require permits. The Israeli authorities, through the Coordinator of Government Activities in the Territories (COGAT), maintained that permits were necessary. The property faced legal challenges from Haminuta, a subsidiary of the Keren Kayemeth LeIsrael-Jewish National Fund (KKL-JNF), which claimed ownership of the land based on a supposed purchase dating back to 1969. However, this claim was contentious due to incomplete land registration in the area, raising concerns of possible mistakes or forgery. The al-Makhrour hill is strategically valuable for connecting Israeli settlements, such as Gush Etzion and Har Gilo, to Jerusalem. Activists argue that this plan is part of the broader 'Greater Jerusalem'project, aimed at consolidating Israeli control and isolating Palestinian villages from Bethlehem. Activists like Hagit Ofran from the Peace Now group emphasized the demolition's significance in disconnecting Palestinian territories and preventing the establishment of a cohesive Palestinian state. Palestinian activist Hasan Breijeh highlighted that the demolitions aim to pressure families into abandoning their land, aligning with a broader strategy of territorial consolidation for Israeli settlements. The community's efforts to resist these measures include public advocacy, legal battles, and a strong presence on contested land. Home demolitions in the occupied territories violate international law, specifically the fourth Geneva Convention, which prohibits altering the conditions on the ground in occupied areas. Demolition by Israeli Forces: The restaurant was previously dismantled in 2012 and 2013 , with the family rebuilding each time. On a Monday morning in August 2019 , the Israeli military demolished the family’s restaurant and home. The stated reason was the lack of a proper construction permit, which is a frequent justification used by Israeli authorities for demolitions in the West Bank. The demolition took place despite a notice from the Israeli High Court calling for a delay, which was ignored by the military commander on site. On Augustus 9, 2024 Israeli settlers invaded the Qaisiya properties supported by Israeli soldiers. on Augustus 26, 2024 Pastor Munther Isaac @MuntherIsaac "Today I visited the Qaisiya family. There were forcebly expelled from their land by the Israeli military, and now they are staying in a tent outside of their land. They were attacked by settlers, and Alice the daughter was arrested, (she was released for now today). In the tent I also met Israeli activists for peace who are in solidarity with the family from Combatants For Peace, and young men from Masafir Yatta who are facing similar challenges and came as well to show solidarity. It was powerful to see Jews and Muslims in solidarity with this Christian family from Bethlehem. Please pray and advocate for this family. I took a picture of the official document that prove their ownership of the land. What the Qaisiya family is facing is what we as Palestinians have been enduring for 76 years, namely: Ethnic cleansing. This is what the settler activity is all about." On November 3, 2024 Alice Qaisiya was arrested, for the second time this year, by the Israeli security forces, according to savealmakhrour "Fresh out of hospital for knee surgery, still on crutches, she was attacked by armed settlers and then taken into custody by the IOF (*video of her arrest is in our most recent Reel). We ask our global community and friends to raise your voices of concern, call representatives, notify embassies, notify organisations and organising groups ... and pray. Pray for her safety and quick release ... and continue to pray for justice to come to Al-Makhrour and all of Palestine." On november 29, 2024 The Israeli army arrested Palestinian Christian Alice QaIsiyia and her mother for visiting their own land, which was stolen by Israeli settler. Source : Impact on the Family and Community: Despite the repeated setbacks, the Qaisyehs, led by Ramzi and supported by his daughter Alice, remained resilient. Alice expressed the emotional toll but asserted that they were "not defeated." The family, supported by the local community, set up tents on the land and vowed to rebuild. "In this Palestinian valley west of Bethlehem, which in 2014 became a UNESCO World Heritage Site due to its its olive groves and vineyards, the Qaisiya family's restaurant is nothing more than a pile of ruins topped by fences. It was a restaurant appreciated for its cuisine and friendliness in the Palestinian Christian town of Beit Jala. "The place is beautiful, the food succulent and the owners are adorable [...]. If you're passing through Beit Jala, a stop at Al Makhrour is a must," a comment from 2015 reads on its Facebook page. Ramzi Qaisiya who had inherited the land opened a restaurant in 2001 there with his wife and their four children. For years, hundreds of tourists passing through Bethlehem stopped there for a salad before continuing their hike in the green valleys. For a long time, the Makhrour valley was untouched by uncontrolled Israeli settlements, but the trouble began in 2012 when an Israeli outpost - a settlement not authorised by the government - was built there. The settlers demolished the restaurant, claiming it belonged to the JNF. The Qaisiya family, who insist otherwise, rebuilt their restaurant before it was demolished again in 2013 and then again in 2015. In 2019 the family decided to take the case to court to have their rights heard. But in 2023, a civil court in Jerusalem validated the expropriation. In a bid to prevent the family's restaurant from being rebuilt again, the Israeli army declared the site to be a "closed military zone", which prevented anyone from entering it until this past summer, when Israeli settlers backed by soldiers destroyed it once again. Israeli settlers backed by the army seized the 5,000 square- metre plot on July 31 and evicted the French-Palestinian family. "We are being targeted because we reject the government's Zionist policy," said Michelle Qaisiya. Expulsions of Palestinians from their land in West Bank have increased, particularly since Israel's far-right government came to power in 2022. The situation has sharply deteriorated since Israel's invasion of Gaza last year." from hiddenpalestine To go further :
