Israeli troops withdrew from a besieged Palestinian district in this refugee camp early yesterday, leaving behind dozens of demolished homes, acres of leveled agricultural land and residents despairing over how the destruction will be repaired.
The military said that in the framework of the partial redeployment, Israeli forces released the quarantine from the Tel Sultan neighborhood, and residents were free to leave and enter. Troops continued to operate in the Brazil area of the refugee camp.
Tel Sultan was the first focus of the Israeli sweep through the sprawling refugee camp on the Gaza-Egypt border. Residents said the tanks pulled back in the direction of a Jewish settlement after midnight. However, the six-day Israeli raid continued in other areas of the camp.
