Less than two weeks before her wedding, Mayar Amrish sat with her family in the spacious courtyard of their home, making plans for the big day. The Middle East Eye reported that an Israeli assault has displaced thousands of residents from Hebron, forcing families to abandon their homes and abandon major life events.
Residents describe leaving with "heavy hearts" as the military operation uproots communities from the Palestinian city. The displacement has interrupted weddings, funerals, and everyday life for thousands of families caught in the assault.
