More than 32,000 Palestinians have been displaced by an ongoing Israeli offensive in refugee camps in the occupied northern West Bank, the UN agency for Palestinian refugees (UNRWA) has said. Rolan Friedrich, Director of UNRWA Affairs for the occupied West Bank, said on Thursday that the Israeli assault emptied the Jenin, Tulkarem, and Nur Shams refugee camps. “And yet, even in these ghost towns that were once vibrant camps, Israeli forces still see the need to order demolitions for the sake of so-called ‘military purposes,” Friedrich added in a statement.
