The Israeli occupation forces retreated from Nablus after a large-scale military offensive that lasted more than three hours.
Local sources reported that violent confrontations erupted between the Resistance fighters and the IOF, which stormed the old town in the governorate.
The sources added that the IOF surrounded a house in the area, and fired a number of guided missiles at it.
"The target is Ibrahim Al-Nabulsi, who survived an assassination attempt on February 8 in Nablus," according to Israeli media.

A spokesperson for the IOF said, "The forces are carrying out a military operation in the city of Nablus, and an armed confrontation took place between Palestinian gunmen and the army."
Israeli media reported that the IOF deployed snipers in several areas in Nablus, noting that confrontations have also erupted in the occupied West Bank town of Qabatiya, near Jenin.
Since the beginning of 2022, the IOF killed more than 70 Palestinians, 27 of them from Jenin and its camp including Palestinian journalist Shireen Abu Akleh, who was covering an Israeli raid in Jenin.
