Israeli forces have forcibly removed some Palestinian families from their homes on the outskirts of the Nur Shams refugee camp, east of Tulkarem in the occupied West Bank, according to Wafa.

The Palestinian news agency, citing local sources, said residents were given a final deadline of 7am (9am PKT) to leave their homes, as Israeli forces fired weapons intending to intimidate them.

The Israeli raid on the Nur Shams refugee camp has been ongoing for more than two months.
