Israeli settlers have uprooted 100 olive trees in Turmus Aya, West Bank, marking a fresh escalation in the ongoing conflict. Israeli forces have continued their aggressive operations in the city of Tulkarm and its camp for the 100th day, while the siege on Nur Shams camp has now entered its 87th day.

In Jenin, both the city and its camp have endured 105 days of sustained aggression, characterised by a tight siege, systematic destruction, and forced displacement. Approximately 22,000 people have been displaced, with initial material losses estimated at over $300 million.
