TUBAS, WEST BANK, PALESTINE - JUNE 4, 2025: The Israeli army launched a military offensive in two Palestinian areas in the northern West Bank on Wednesday, in the latest escalation in the occupied territory, local sources said. The sources said Israeli forces pushed into the town of Tammun and the Far’a refugee camp in Tubas city amid military reinforcements. Sounds of gunfire were heard as Israeli military bulldozers destroyed infrastructure and roads in the area, the sources said. Several houses were raided during the raid. Kamal Bani Odeh, the local director of the Palestinian Prisoner Society in Tubas, said nearly 10 people, including freed prisoners, were detained by the Israeli forces in Tammun and two others in the Far’a refugee camp. Since the start of the Israeli onslaught on the Gaza Strip on Oct. 7, 2023, at least 973 Palestinians have been killed and more than 7,000 injured in attacks by the Israeli army and illegal settlers across the occupied West Bank, according to the Palestinian Health Ministry. The International Court of Justice declared last July that Israel’s longstanding occupation of Palestinian territories is illegal and called for the evacuation of all settlements in the West Bank and East Jerusalem.
