Israeli soldiers storm the Far’a refugee camp, killing three, as raids and arrests continue across the West Bank.

The killings come as the Israeli military continues its weeks-long, large-scale offensive on several areas of the northern West Bank, including Jenin and its refugee camp, as well as Tulkarem and its Nur Shams refugee camp, forcing thousands to flee their homes.

The army has also deployed hundreds of soldiers and bulldozers that demolished houses and tore up vital infrastructure in the camps, cutting off water and power.

Israel launched its crackdown on refugee camps in the West Bank in January.(…) The army has since killed dozens of Palestinians and forced at least 40,000 to flee as they have demolished homes and torn up vital infrastructure in refugee camps across the West Bank, the United Nations agency for Palestinian refugees (UNRWA) reports.
