Palestinians return to ruined Hebron homes after Israel’s 10-day siege
About 3,300 Palestinians have returned to their homes in Hebron in the occupied West Bank after a 10-day Israeli siege and forced displacement, but residents face widespread destruction, demolished shops and damaged infrastructure. Local officials estimate direct economic losses at more than 12 million shekels a day, with hundreds of shops closed and about 80,000 students kept out of school.
