The occupation continues its raids on Jayyus, carrying out arrests and raids.

Israeli occupation forces arrested five citizens from the town of Jayyous, east of Qalqilya, on Tuesday afternoon, as they continued their raid into the town since the early hours of the morning.

According to local sources, the occupation forces arrested citizens Mushrif, Hassan, Karam, Musab, and Murshid Al-Qaddoumi after raiding their homes, searching them, and vandalizing their contents.

According to the director of the Jayyus municipality, Yousef Khaled, the occupation forces stormed the town in the early morning hours and took up positions in its center, specifically near the Grand Mosque. They seized the home of Mahmoud Saleh, turning it into a military barracks and preventing citizens from traveling. They also seized an electric bicycle belonging to Saleh Al-Harami.

The occupation also forced businesses, including bakeries, to close, and the town's six schools were closed.

The occupation forces are tightening the noose around the town's residents, continuing to close the secondary road between Jayyous and Azzun with an iron gate for the fifth consecutive day, impeding the movement of residents and exacerbating their suffering.

The town of Jayyus is located east of Qalqilya and has a population of 5,000. It is surrounded by the settlements of Tzofim to the west and Alfei Menashe to the south, and is surrounded on all other sides by the racist annexation wall.
