A man holding a Palestinian flag stands at the entrance of the Nur Shams refugee camp, near Tulkarem in the Israeli-occupied West Bank, during a protest by residents demanding the right to return to their homes, on November 18, 2025. Clashes in the territory between Palestinians and the Israeli army or settlers soar after the start of the war in Gaza, which was sparked by the Hamas attack on southern Israel on October 7, 2023. Israel's military launched its operation "Iron Wall" in the north of the West Bank in January, saying it was aimed at cracking down on several camps that are strongholds of Palestinian armed groups fighting against Israel.
