About 3,000 displaced in Hebron amid occupation siege, closure of 128 gates and 120 checkpoints

The humanitarian crisis in Hebron is worsening as Israeli military operations and closures continue, with the number of displaced rising to about 2,649 people, amid home invasions, vehicle seizures, and abuse of citizens.

The humanitarian crisis in the city of Hebron in the southern occupied West Bank is worsening as Israeli military operations and closures continue. According to the Hebron Support and Relief Committee, the number of displaced in the city has risen to about 2,649 people due to ongoing military measures and forced evictions that have affected Palestinian families in several areas. Local sources reported that additional Israeli occupation army forces, accompanied by armored military vehicles and equipment, stormed Hebron from the Farsh al-Hawa entrance, coinciding with a raid on the southern area near Jabal Karbaj, and the arrival of military reinforcements and large trucks to the al-Jalda area. Occupation forces also confiscated a number of Palestinian vehicles, and new military reinforcements arrived at the Ein Deir Baha area, where forces seized other vehicles. Field footage showed occupation soldiers abusing a young man at the al-Jalda roundabout in the city. Separately, eyewitnesses reported that occupation forces divided a street in the Jabal al-Rahma area between Palestinians and settlers, a step that would restrict citizens' movement. Occupation forces also raided homes in various areas of the city, including a home belonging to the al-Jaabari family.
