Israeli occupation forces launched a campaign of raids and arrests, including a house siege, in various areas of the West Bank at dawn and early Tuesday morning.
In Nablus, several Israeli military jeeps stormed the city from the Awarta checkpoint, surrounding a house inside the Askar al-Jadid refugee camp. The occupation also launched surveillance drones over the camp.
During the raid, the occupation forces arrested three citizens: Suhaib Abu Kishk, Abdul Al-Shinawi, and Muhannad Qamhiyah.
In the town of Beita, the occupation forces stormed the town at dawn today, raided a large number of homes, searched them, vandalized their contents, and caused damage to some of them. They detained a number of citizens and conducted field investigations with them, and arrested Abdullah Abdul Ghaffar Ghazi Adili.
In Hebron, the occupation forces raided a number of neighborhoods in the town of Idhna, and arrested the following: Moataz Atef Awad, Muhammad Amjad Atmizi, Adam Khaled Awad, Adam Nihad Al-Batran, Mahmoud Ziad Al-Hattawi, and Youssef Awad.
The occupation forces continue their daily raids on the town, implementing a series of collective punishment measures against the town's residents, including raids, searches, demolitions, and arrests.
Israeli occupation forces also stormed the city of Dura, raiding several neighborhoods and a house in the Al-Alam roundabout area. They detained a number of young men and residents and interrogated them on the spot.
Yasser Saleh, the director of education in southern Hebron, said that the education directorate had postponed the start of the school day until the occupation forces withdrew from the area, to protect the lives of students.
Saleh pointed out that the occupation forces deliberately and continuously raid Dura as students head to or from school. Fourteen martyrs have been killed in Dura, most of them school students, since the start of the Israeli aggression on October 7, 2023.
In Ramallah, occupation forces arrested two young men, Nour Muhammad Rayhan and Ahmad Shahit, after raiding their homes in the Amari refugee camp in the city of Al-Bireh. They also arrested Muhammad Issam Al-Qaisi after storming his home in the town of Beitunia, west of Ramallah, and ransacking its contents.
The Umm al-Sharait, Sateh Marhaba, and al-Balou' neighborhoods in al-Bireh were also raided, along with the village of Deir Qadis and the town of Ni'lin, west of Ramallah. No additional arrests have been reported so far.
In a related development, Israeli bulldozers demolished the memorial to martyrs Imad and Adel Awadallah in the city of Al-Bireh, amid a heavy deployment of Israeli forces around the site.
