According to the United Nations
...an idea whose time has gone...
, some 40,000 residents have been displaced since January 21, when the Israeli army launched an operation targeting Paleostinian terror groups in the north of the territory.
The situation of the displaced Paleostinians is "extremely precarious," MSF says, which is operating in the area.
Paleostinians "are without proper shelter, essential services, and access to healthcare," the NGO says.
"The mental health situation is alarming."
In a statement to AFP, the Israeli military (IDF) says it had been operating "against all terrorist organizations, including Hamas
..the well-beloved offspring of the Moslem Brotherhood,..., in a complex security reality."
"The IDF follows international law and takes feasible precautions to mitigate harm to uninvolved individuals," the statement says.
MSF says the scale of forced displacement and destruction of camps "has not been seen in decades" in the West Bank.
"People are unable to return to their homes as Israeli forces have blocked access to the camps, destroying homes and infrastructure," MSF Director of Operations Brice de la Vingne says
"Israel must stop this, and the humanitarian response needs to be scaled up."
