Israel evacuates three West Bank refugee camps and plans military presence to prevent return of residents

Israel has evacuated three refugee camps in the northern West Bank: Jenin, Tulkarm, and Nur Shams. About 40,000 Palestinians have left these areas, which are now empty. Defense Minister Israel Katz announced that troops will remain in the camps for a year. Their goal is to prevent residents from returning and to stop any resurgence of terrorism. This marks a significant change in Israel's military strategy in the region, focusing on maintaining a long-term presence in these areas.
