A report by Human Rights Watch accuses the IDF of crimes against humanity against 32,000 Palestinians living in camps

Expulsion of refugees from West Bank are 'war crimes

Israel’s forced displacement of the populations of three West Bank refugee camps earlier this year amounts to war crimes and crimes against humanity, a new Human Rights Watch (HRW) report has found.

Around 20,154 people were expelled from the Tulkarem and Nur Shams refugee camps during “Operation Iron Wall”, an Israeli military operation that began on 21 January, just days after a temporary ceasefire was announced in Gaza, according to the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA).

Another 11,765 have been displaced from the Jenin refugee camp as a result of operations by Israeli and Palestinian forces in 2025, bringing the total to nearly 32,000, OCHA figures show.
