The announcement comes after Israeli occupation forces raided in the early hours of Thursday several towns and cities across the occupied West Bank, with Palestinian youth confronting the incursions.
The raids followed Israeli media reports about two Israeli soldiers who were killed in a car-ramming operation at the Awarta checkpoint near the West Bank city of Nablus.
