Almost 5,000 people have been displaced from Hebron in the West Bank as a result of Israel's military siege on the city, Al Jazeera English reported. The displacement represents a significant loss of homes and livelihoods for residents of the contested Palestinian city.
The siege has intensified restrictions on movement and access to basic services for the remaining population in Hebron, one of the largest cities in the Palestinian territories.
