The forces carried out the demolition operation, which lasted from about nine in the morning until three in the afternoon, using manual demolition tools and light devices, as it is on the sixth floor of a residential building.

During the hours of the demolition, sporadic clashes erupted between the forces and the youths, and the forces used gas bombs massively, fired by the soldiers and the drone that flew over the area, targeting the residential houses, noting that the bombs continued when the students left their schools in the camp and were on their way to their homes from Jerusalem.
