Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz said Sunday that the Israeli
military has forcibly displaced 40,000 Palestinians in the northern
occupied West Bank and that they couldnt return home as the IDF will
be operating in the area over the next year, raising fears of a new
ethnic cleansing campaign.
The Israeli military launched the current operation in the West Bank,
dubbed Iron Wall, on January 21. It has been focused on the northern
cities of Jenin and Tulkarm but has spread elsewhere in the occupied
territory. In a new escalation, Israeli tanks entered the West Bank on
Sunday for the first time since 2002.
Katz said in a statement that he ordered the Israeli military to
prepare for an extended stay in the camps that have been cleared for
the coming year, and not to allow residents to return.
