Hi there,

Can you donate $10 per month to support Democracy Now!’s independent journalism all year long? Since our very first broadcast in 1996, we’ve refused to take government or corporate funding, because nothing is more important to us than our editorial independence—especially in this unprecedented election year. When Democracy Now! covers war and peace or the climate crisis, we’re not brought to you by the weapons manufacturers or the oil, gas, coal or nuclear companies. Our journalism is powered by YOU. But that means we can’t do our work without your support. Right now, a generous donor will DOUBLE your gift, which means your $10 donation this month will be worth $20 to Democracy Now! Please do your part right now. We’re all in this together. Thank you so much.
-Amy Goodman

Israeli Forces Continue Deadly Assault on West Bank’s Jenin, Leave Tulkarm and Tubas in Ruins

HeadlineAug 30, 2024

In the occupied West Bank, Israeli soldiers backed by armored bulldozers are continuing a wide-scale assault on Jenin for a third straight day. Three people were killed in an Israeli airstrike on a car, which reportedly killed Wassam Hazem, the head of Hamas in Jenin. Israeli forces withdrew late Thursday from Tulkarm and Tubas, following a two-day raid that saw several Palestinians killed and the widespread destruction of roads and civilian infrastructure including water and electricity. Tulkarm residents assessed the damage after returning home.

Hussein Shehada: “Here, where you are filming, was the house of an old woman. Since the first moment of the raid, they destroyed the house, and they entered the house behind us. There were walls and a road here. They destroyed them. My relative’s house, Yousef Shehada’s house, was also destroyed using missiles and drones.”
