At least 20 Palestinian citizens were killed and several others were injured tonight in an Israeli massacre which targeted a popular café in the Tulkarm refugee camp, located in the northern occupied West Bank.
According to WAFA News Agency, Israeli warplanes fired at least one missile at the café in the Al-Hamam neighborhood while numerous civilians were present. The deadly strike resulted in the martyrdom of 20 people and left others with varying degrees of injuries.
Civil defense and ambulance vehicles rushed to the scene to assist the victims, transporting the injured to the Thabet Government Hospital in Tulkarm.
This massacre, considered the largest in the West Bank in over 24 years, is part of a broader context of ongoing Israeli attacks in the region, which have escalated since the onset of the Israeli genocidal war against the Palestinian population in October of last year.
