TULKAREM, (PIC)
A general strike has been observed on Sunday across the occupied West Bank and Jerusalem in protest at the Israeli crimes in Nur Shams refugee camp and in mourning for the Palestinian citizens who were martyred during three days of an Israeli military campaign in Tulkarem.
Businesses, schools and different facilities observed the strike and shut down their doors in different areas of the West Bank and Jerusalem.
Palestinian resistance factions, which called for the strike, urged the citizens to participate in clashes today with the Israeli occupation forces (IOF) across the occupied territories.
The strike was staged after the IOF stormed Nur Shams camp last Thursday and committed appalling crimes against its local residents, killing and injuring dozens, kidnaping others, and destroying homes and infrastructure.
The IOF reportedly killed 14 citizens and injured dozens during its three-day campaign in the refugee camp of Nur Shams in Tulkarem.
