The Israeli occupation forces, accompanied by military bulldozers, had launched a large-scale incursion into the camp after midnight, amidst heavy gunfire.

They initiated the destruction of the main road and infrastructure within the camp while snipers occupied rooftops of civilian homes.

Nearly 250 Palestinians, including 48 children have been killed by Israel since the beginning of the year.
