Palestinian media reported that Israeli occupation forces stormed different areas of cities and camps in the West Bank during late hours on Thursday and Friday at dawn. The reports confirm that resistance fighters responded with gunfire and IEDs.

In the Jabal Mukaber area of ​​occupied al-Quds, the occupation forces raided the home of martyr Ahmad A'lian's family, who carried out a stabbing operation at the Israeli military “Mezmoria” checkpoint, located between the cities of occupied al-Quds and Beit Lahm, arresting the martyr's father, mother and sister.

He was martyred by occupation bullets after carrying out the stabbing operation, which injured two Israeli occupation soldiers.  

In occupied al-Quds, local Palestinian media circulated reports of armed confrontations between resistance fighters and occupation forces in the town of Rafat, north of the city, on Friday at dawn.

Palestinian youth killed by Israeli forces in Nablus

Earlier on Thursday, a Palestinian youth was martyred after suffering critical injuries 10 days earlier during an IOF raid on the city of Nablus.

The Ministry of Health announced that Tareq al-Shakhsheir, 21, was martyred after suffering critical injuries during confrontations that broke out in the wake of an Israeli raid on several of Nablus' neighborhoods on December 18. The 21-year-old's martyrdom raises the number of Palestinian martyrs in the occupied West Bank to 314 since the start of the aggression on Gaza, and to 522 overall since the start of 2023.

Israeli campaigns involving incursions, arrests, and raids have persisted in the cities and camps of the West Bank since October 7. This ongoing aggression aligns with the occupation's ongoing assaults on the Gaza Strip for the 82nd consecutive day.
