WEST BANK (Dispatches) – The Zionist regime has pounded Jenin refugee camp and destroyed residential buildings as part of its ongoing large-scale operations in the occupied West Bank.
Footage released by locals on social media appeared to show a large swathe of the camp being destroyed.
The Wafa news agency said Zionist troops simultaneously blew up nearly 20 buildings on the eastern side of the camp after rigging them with explosives.
The director of the main governmental hospital in Jenin, Wisam Baker, told the news agency that some sections of the hospital had been damaged as a result of the explosions.
Earlier on Sunday, a 73-year-old Palestinian man was shot dead in Jenin, according to Wafa. 
The Palestine Red Crescent Society (PRCS) reported that its crews recovered the body of Walid Lahlouh from the entrance of the camp, transferring it to the hospital.
Lahlouh’s killing brings the total number of Palestinians killed since the Zionist regime launched its military assault on Jenin 13 days ago to 25.
According to Wafa, Israeli bulldozers have leveled around 100 homes in the camp, with local hospitals facing severe water shortages after Zionist troops damaged pipelines.
Around 35 percent of the city’s population cannot access water.
Since the beginning of the war in Gaza on October 7, 2023, Israeli soldier and settler attacks in the West Bank have skyrocketed, leaving hundreds dead.
Hassan Mleihat, general supervisor of the local al-Baydar Organisation for the Defence of Bedouin Rights, told Wafa that the settlers poured a flammable substance inside the mosque before setting it ablaze.
According to the report, the fire tore through the building, destroying it completely.
Wafa added that the group also torched a tractor.
