At 01:30 AM, the IOF launched a large-scale invasion of the northern West Bank with thousands of soldiers, responded to in a battle that Saraya Al-Quds has named **The Horror of the Camps **(while groups of Al-Aqsa Martyrs’ Brigades have named it the Wrath of the Free)**. **
This invasion is the largest since 2002, surpassing the large, multi-day invasions that Jenin and Tulkarem have witnessed in the past year. Its focus is on Jenin, Tulkarem, and Tubas, yet all of the West Bank is experiencing the aggression.
Alongside the IOF, four brigades of the Border Police are participating in the operation, as well as the Shin Bet and undercover units, with extensive deployment of helicopters and drones.
Hospitals have been besieged and bulldozers are destroying infrastructure significantly. While no forcible displacement has occurred, the threat seriously looms, and the IOF has given Nour Shams camp residents the “option” to leave. The large operation is targeting primarily residential areas, in light of recent comments from zionist officials to “do in the West Bank what we did in Gaza.”
At least 10 martyrs have ascended in the West Bank and many are wounded since the aggression began 15 hours ago, as a result of IOF bullets and three separate drone strikes. It is expected that aerial assaults on the West Bank will escalate, especially in light of Gallant’s orders to do so.
Yet, the resistance, in all its factions and formations, has demonstrated its steadfastness and persistence, carrying out a number of qualitative operations and ambushes on all combat axes. Fighters from neighboring towns have mobilized to support their resisting brothers in Jenin and elsewhere in battles reminiscent of the epics of 2002. Dozens of powerful explosive devices have been detonated amidst fierce clashes from point blank range from all factions of the united resistance—from Al-Qassam and Saraya to Al-Asifah and Mujahideen.
In Tulkarem, IOF soldiers were caught in a complex ambush and wounded in Al-Damj neighborhood. In Jenin, a bulldozer was destroyed, as in Tulkarem and Tubas, and resistance fighters engaged directly with infantry forces in Jenin. This fierce resistance was witnessed despite an aggressive campaign in the recent period by the Palestinian Authority, in coordination with the zionist entity, to dismantle the resistance’s explosive devices and abduct fighters.
The new aggression on the West Bank is an extension of zionist crimes in Gaza since October 7th, where over 640 martyrs have ascended since then, alongside over 5,000 wounded and 10,000 abducted. The defeated zionist entity has mired itself in another front that it will drown in, seeking to create an illusion of victory after it failed to defeat the resistance in Gaza and Lebanon for the last 11 months.
The bloodshed and devastation inflicted on our people will not break the will of the resistance. Every strike and every invasion only strengthens our people’s resolve to shatter zionist illusions. The resistance “brings good news to our great people that the occupier will be surprised by the death and response that will come from the southern and central West Bank, and within the occupied interior.” All statements have affirmed the continuation and escalation of resistance. Resistance will not bow; it will come from every place to defeat the occupier.
