Dozens interrogated during Israeli raid in Al-Fawar refugee camp, witnesses say

RAMALLAH, Palestine/ISTANBUL
Israeli army forces raided the Al-Fawar refugee camp in the southern West Bank on Thursday amid military escalation across the occupied territory.
According to witnesses, Israeli forces held dozens of youths for field interrogation at the camp south of Hebron city before setting them free.
Clashes erupted between angry residents and Israeli forces, who used live fire and rubber-coated bullets to disperse Palestinians, witnesses said. No injuries were reported.
The raid was the latest in Israel’s ongoing military escalation in the occupied West Bank, where at least 942 people have been killed and over 7,000 others injured in Israeli attacks since the outbreak of the Gaza war in October 2023, according to the Health Ministry.
The Israeli army has also launched a deadly offensive in the northern West Bank since January, killing more than 70 Palestinians and displacing thousands.
The International Court of Justice declared Israel’s longstanding occupation of Palestinian territories illegal in July. It demanded the evacuation of all settlements in the West Bank and East Jerusalem.
