Israeli occupation forces have caused significant damage to infrastructure around al-Fara’a refugee camp, located south of Tubas in the West Bank, as the occupation forces continue their assault on the camp since last night, Wafa reports.

Local sources reported that Israeli troops bulldozed sections of the main road leading to the camp from the southern entrance, exacerbating the already difficult conditions for residents.

In addition, Israeli forces have blocked access to the camp by erecting dirt mounds at its entrances. In addition, several homes surrounding the camp have been seized by the military, with troops taking up positions inside the properties.

Meanwhile, Israeli forces have also intensified their incursions on the outskirts of the nearby town of Tammoun, southeast of Tubas. Military units are now stationed at the southern edges of the town after forcing numerous families in the area to flee their homes.
