Three Palestinians were killed early Tuesday in the northern West Bank, as Israeli occupation forces carried out airstrikes and opened fire during a series of brutal attacks in the Tubas and Nablus governorates.

In the town of Tammun, south of Tubas, two young men—Suleiman Mustafa Qashaytat and Suleiman Mustafa Bisharat—were killed in an Israeli airstrike. The attack occurred amid confrontations between Resistance fighters and invading Israeli units as the latter stormed Al-Faraa refugee camp, located to the south of Tubas.

Resistance fighters from Saraya al-Quds in Tubas engaged in intense confrontations with Israeli forces at the camp’s market area. The movement released a statement saying that its fighters launched a heavy barrage of gunfire at Israeli troops, reportedly achieving direct hits.

Concurrently, an Israeli helicopter dropped a unit of ground troops at the edges of the camp, while military bulldozers and vehicles were deployed from the nearby Hamra military checkpoint, and then began demolishing infrastructure around the camp. Meanwhile, Israeli drones and helicopters were seen flying low over the area, further escalating tensions.

The Israeli forces also stormed the building of the al-Faraa Refugee Camp Services Committee after detonating its entrance.

The IOF also carried out raids in the town of Azzun, east of Qalqilya, deploying military vehicles toward the area. In the town of Baqa al-Hatab, also in the Qalqilya district, Israeli forces arrested the mother and brother of the perpetrator of the Kedumim shooting operation.

Settler violence escalates in Qalqilya district

Meanwhile, settler violence continued to escalate in the Qalqilya district. Settlers, under the protection of Israeli occupation forces, set fire to a vehicle in the village of Hajja and launched attacks on the villages of Farata and Amatin. They pelted homes with stones, damaging windows and destroying crops in the vicinity.

Sources also reported that settlers threw flammable materials at an uninhabited home and set fire to a bulldozer in the village of Amatin. In response, Palestinian youths attempted to fend off the attackers, but Israeli forces fired live ammunition at them.

Ongoing military measures in Qalqilya

Since early Monday morning, Qalqilya has been under heightened military pressure, with the IOF setting up checkpoints, closing roads, and conducting raids. Settler attacks have further exacerbated the situation, leaving many locals fearful of further violence in the coming days.

The ongoing Israeli military aggressions and settler violence have resulted in rising tensions and further exacerbated the already volatile situation in the occupied West Bank.
