Last night, the Israeli army killed at least nine Palestinians in an attack on the Jenin refugee camp, including an elderly woman and two teenagers. During the attack, Israeli forces raided a hospital and fired teargas, forcing families to flee a pediatric ward.
Israeli forces have now killed at least 27 Palestinians already this year. 2022 was the deadliest year for Palestinians in the occupied West Bank since 2004, and this year is already on track to be twice as deadly. This attack signifies another horrific escalation in violence by the new far right Israeli government.
Jewish Voice for Peace stands in solidarity with the Palestinian General Strike — all eyes on Palestine.
