Jenin - Ma'an - The Director of Public Relations and Media in the Jenin Municipality, Bashir Matahen, said that the Israeli occupation forces caused massive destruction to the infrastructure of the city of Jenin. In a phone call on Saturday evening, Matahen told WAFA that the damage to the electricity network led to a power outage in the camp, Khallet Satouha, Jabal Abu Dhahir, and the eastern neighborhood. He explained that the occupation forces bulldozed more than 70% of the city's streets, including the streets of Nazareth, Palestine, Haifa, Nablus, and the Yahya Ayyash roundabout area, noting that the bulldozing took place at a depth of approximately one meter and one and a half meters, which led to the destruction of water and sewage networks, and communications and electricity cables, in the bulldozed areas, with an estimated length of 20 km initially. Matahen added that water had been cut off from 80% of the city and the entire camp, due to the destruction of the networks and the inability of techni cal crews to reach those networks to transfer them to other areas. He added that the municipality crews were unable to reach the damaged networks despite their attempts, during which they were exposed to gunfire from the occupation forces. He said that the occupation forces burned parts of the city's central vegetable market, and that initial estimates of the damage to the market and its shops indicate that they were severely damaged, in addition to the destruction of hundreds of homes and cars. He pointed out that a large percentage of the city and camp residents have exhausted their stock of food, medicine and cooking fuel, and that the municipality is receiving continuous calls from residents appealing to provide their needs, but the curfew imposed on the city and its camp prevents the ability to provide those needs, describing the current situation as "catastrophic." Matahen explained that the capabilities of Jenin Municipality are not sufficient to repair the remnants of the aggression, and that it n eeds direct support from the Water Authority, specialists, and the necessary human resources to repair the damage to the infrastructure of electricity, water, sewage, and others, which requires long work to restore the city to what it was before the aggression, and that the municipality has exhausted all its capabilities due to the continuous incursions and destruction of the infrastructure during the last years. The aggression of the Israeli occupation army on Jenin and its camp continues for the fourth consecutive day, leaving so far a number of injuries, arrests, and forced evictions of families, in addition to the widespread destruction of the infrastructure, amid the imposition of a curfew in the Al-Damj neighborhood and the Al-Jabariyat neighborhood.
