The full story
Residents of Hebron, including displaced families, women, children, and elderly individuals, rallied to protest an ongoing Israeli military operation that has forced thousands from their homes. The military campaign began following an attack at a checkpoint that resulted in the deaths of two Israeli soldiers. Protesters gathered near closed-off areas such as Al-Jalda Square, holding placards demanding an end to collective punishment, closures, and displacement. According to the United Nations and municipal reports, thousands of Palestinians have been displaced, with homes seized or damaged and area entrances blocked. In response to the gatherings, Israeli troops fired stun grenades to disperse demonstrators so military operations could continue.
