Mustafa Taqatqa, governor of Tulkarem in a statement condemned Israeli crimes including “targeting and abusing citizens, and the deliberate and brutal sabotage of infrastructure and the demolition of houses, vandalizing them and tampering with their contents.

Israeli forces begin attacks on the Nur Shams refugee camp in Tulkarem in the occupied West Bank on Thursday night.

Meanwhile, Funerals were held for Palestinians, including six children, killed in an Israeli air attack on Gaza’s Rafah.

Three Palestinians have been killed and dozens injured at the Israeli bombing of a house in the Shaboura camp in the center of the city of Rafah.

Among the dead are a child and a pregnant woman. At least five children were injured in Rafah.

In two other attacks on Saturday, six children were among at least nine people killed in Israeli air raids that hit two homes in the Tal as-Sultan and al-Salam neighborhoods of Rafah on Saturday.

On Saturday, Israeli forces deployed more troops to areas adjacent to Rafah and destroyed farms in the eastern parts of Rafah.

Earlier in the day, two civilians were killed and several others were injured after Israeli warplanes bombed the al-Mawasi neighborhood near the southern Gaza city of Khan Younis.

Also in the occupied West Bank, at the attack of Israeli settlers on people near the village of As-Sawiya, south of Nablus Muhammad Awadallah Muhammad Musa, a 50-year-old ambulance driver was killed.

Simultaneously with the growing Israeli settlers' attack on Palestinian people, the occupation forces obstruct the work of ambulance crews and vehicles and prevent them from transferring injured Palestinians to hospitals.

At least 34,049 people have been killed and 76,901 wounded in Israeli attacks on Gaza since October 7. 

The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) in its latest report announced that one child is killed every 10 minutes in Gaza.

"A deplorable number of children have also been injured amid intense and often indiscriminate attacks," UNRWA added.

Israeli settler militias have attacked Palestinians on the highway between Ramallah and Jericho in the occupied West Bank.

Since October 7, settler attacks have increased in the occupied West Bank, but recently, violent settler militia attacks on Palestinian homes and properties increased dramatically.

Several attacks by settlers and Israeli forces have been reported on Saturday including an Israeli settler attack in Turmus Aya in the northeast of Ramallah, where cars and other properties were destroyed.

Israeli forces also stormed the village of at-Tawani in Masafer Yatta, south of Hebron, raided several homes, and closed all entrances leading to the town.

In the village of Al Saywah, locals reported that Israeli settlers were attacking people and homes with gunfire, with reports of at least three injuries among Palestinians.
