Inside the most destructive West Bank IDF raid in decades
While speaking to residents of Nur Shams refugee camp in the West Bank, TRNN reporters found themselves in the middle of the most destructive IDF raid since the Second Intifada. In this raid, Israeli troops killed 14 Palestinians and destroyed a neighborhood, including a local school. This video was co-produced with Shadowgraph Productions.
A message from the filmmakers:
Everything about this is normal.
This film and its matching gallery present both a historic and an ordinary event. Historic, because we inadvertently captured Israel’s largest military operation in the West Bank since the Second Intifada. And ordinary, because Palestinians are faced with operations of this kind, varying in their intensity, almost daily. In this sense, everything captured here is normal. All of it. The raids, the indiscriminate killings, the destruction of property and any infrastructure sustaining life, the collective punishment. This level of violence and pain, incomprehensible in our minds and intransmissible through our screens, is a lethal normality in the West Bank. But what you are about to view is normal in another sense: it is this violence that sustains our own privileged western normalcy. For every smart appliance, workplace perk or fancy bar drink that we enjoy, there is a gun cocked and pointed at a Palestinian by a settler at this western outpost. This is why, through these stories, we wish to pay homage to the humanity, strength and courage of the Palestinian people that we encountered at the 1948 refugee camps of Tulkarm and Nur Shams in the spring of 2024. As the courageous student protests sweeping western universities chant: “Palestine is everywhere”. This is true, of course. But Israel is also everywhere: it is a grotesque exemplar of, but not an exception to, the carnage caused by the insatiable western thirst for power and privilege. Freedom, then, to Palestine. And freedom to all of us.
