Israeli forces have intensified their operations in the West Bank, leading to clashes with Palestinian youths and resulting in multiple arrests and casualties.


The Israeli occupation forces conducted a series of raids across the West Bank, particularly in Nablus and Jenin, leading to clashes with Palestinian youths. These operations included arrests, military checkpoints, and assaults on various towns such as Sebastia, Beit Imrin, and Ya'bad. Reports indicate that the Israeli military stormed Hebron University and imposed curfews in several villages, including Nabi Saleh and Umm Safa, where military checkpoints were established and homes searched.

During these operations, a Palestinian youth was killed by Israeli forces in Beit Awa, highlighting the ongoing violence in the region. The situation has escalated alongside the conflict in Gaza, with significant casualties reported among Palestinians, totaling 811 martyrs and approximately 6,450 wounded, according to official Palestinian sources.

The Israeli military's actions have drawn international criticism, particularly in light of arrest warrants issued by the International Criminal Court against Israeli officials for alleged war crimes. These developments occur amidst a backdrop of increasing tensions and violence in the West Bank, as the Israeli government continues to face scrutiny over its military operations and treatment of Palestinians.
