Member of the Hamas Political Bureau, Hussam Badran, sent an urgent appeal to the Palestinian people in the West Bank, saying: “The time to carry arms has come.”
Badran called on the Palestinian people, everywhere in the West Bank, Al-Quds, the 1948 territories, and the diaspora, to mobilize in support of Gaza to stop the aggression and genocide.

On Friday, the Jenin Battalion - Al-Quds Brigades confronted an Israeli occupation forces (IOF) unit backed by several military vehicles near the Ibn Sina hospital in Jenin as part of Operation Al-Aqsa Flood. The Palestinian Resistance force used IEDs and extensive gunfire in their confrontations with the Israeli occupation forces.
Israeli media reported that an IOF unit accompanied by armored vehicles and bulldozers was storming the camp before they were confronted by the Palestinian Resistance fighters.
Simultaneously, hundreds of Palestinians in the West Bank demonstrated in support of the Gaza Strip, and against the ongoing aggression on the Gaza Strip, the recent unprecedented bombings, and the cut off of all sources of communication in the Gaza Strip.
Furthermore, Palestinian resistance fighters opened fire on the settlement of "Psagot" near the city of Al-Bireh in the central West Bank. Others clashed simultaneously with Israeli occupation soldiers at the southern checkpoint of the city of Areeha. They also detonated a large explosive device in the vicinity of the separation wall near the town of Azzun, east of Qalqilya.
It is worth noting that four young Palestinians were martyred in West Bank cities in the last 24 hours, which brings the number of martyrs in the West Bank since the 7th of this month to 110, in addition to more than 1,900 wounded Palestinians, as a result of occupation targets, according to the Palestinian Ministry of Health.
110 Palestinians have been murdered in the #WestBank since October 7th.
