Palestine (The Palestine Information Centre)Israel has stepped up its atrocities in the occupied West Bank and al-Quds, killing 42 Palestinians in its attacks on refugee camps since the beginning of this year, a new report says.
The report released on Monday by the Palestinian data center “Mu’ti” said that Aqabat Jaber camp, situated near the eastern West Bank city of Jericho, was the target of 307 Israeli raids, the highest when compared with other Palestinian camps.
The regime forces arrested 335 Palestinians in their attacks that left 42 people dead and 373 others injured, added the report, carried by the Palestinian Information Center.
It also recorded 1,561 Israeli crimes against the residents of Palestinian refugee camps in the West Bank and al-Quds so far in 2023.
The occupation forces, the report said, stormed 277 Palestinian homes, illegally possessed two houses and destroyed 17 properties.
The Israeli military carries out deadly raids on various Palestinian towns across the occupied West Bank almost on a daily basis under the pretext of detaining what it calls “wanted” Palestinians. The violent near-nightly attacks spark heavy clashes with local Palestinians.
Recently, the Tel Aviv regime waged a two-day aerial and ground offensive against the West Bank city of Jenin and its refugee camp. At least 12 Palestinians were killed and 140 others injured during the aggression.
