The Israeli occupation forces (IOF) raided Friday at the brink of dawn several Palestinian cities in the occupied West Bank, engaging in numerous confrontations with Palestinian freedom fighters who sought to deter the Israeli occupation forces.

The incursions saw the Israeli occupation forces open fire in numerous sites, which resulted in injuries in the Dheisha refugee camp, with violent arrests taking place in northern Al-Khalil.

The Israeli occupation forces raided the cities of Ariha, Al-Khalil, Nablus, Tulkram, Tubas, Beit Lahm, Ramallah, and Qalqiliya. The confrontations in Qalqilya martyred liberated prisoner Qassem Abdel-Hafez.

Namely, the towns raided include Naalin in Ariha and Sawrif and Doura in Al-Khalil, as well as the Aqabat Jaber and Ain Al-Sultan refugee camps in Ariha, Aida and Dheisha refugee camps in Beit Lahm, the Shuafat refugee camp north of occupied Al-Quds, as well as various other towns in each of the aforementioned cities.

The raids were part of a massive arrest campaign the Israeli occupation forces are carrying out on daily basis in order to terrorize the Palestinian people and limit any participation in any activity that would serve Operation Al-Aqsa Flood in Gaza.

Intense confrontations broke out in Nablus, Areeha, Tubas, and Beit Lahm, which led to numerous injuries. The Palestinian Red Crescent reported that at least six people were wounded during the confrontations in Nablus.

A little over an hour before the raids on the aforementioned camps and cities started, the Israeli occupation forces stormed Jenin with military vehicles and bulldozers that were accompanied by helicopters, reconnaissance drones, and loitering munition.

The Jenin Battalion - Al-Quds Brigades confronted the invading 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.

As the confrontations were unfolding, local sources reported that the Israeli aggression killed three young men, one of whom was identified as Abdullah Abu Al-Haija, another was identified as Aysar al-Amer, and the third was identified as Jawad al-Turki.

The Israeli occupation's bulldozers sabotaged the camp's infrastructure, digging through the streets of the city and plowing through the streets leading to it, an Al Mayadeen correspondent reported.

Moreover, the occupation forces opened fire at ambulances that were trying to tend to those injured, with the Palestinian Red Crescent saying the IOF was firing at its crews for over 20 minutes before they were allowed to reach the wounded. The Palestinian Ministry of Health announced Wednesday that the number of Palestinians martyred in the West Bank since the beginning of Operation Al-Aqsa Flood has reached 103, including two martyrs who died inside Israeli occupation prisons.

According to the Jenin Battalion - Al-Quds Brigades, Resistance fighters in Jenin camp have prepared ahead for anticipated incursions, adding that the Battalion, since the start of Operation Al-Aqsa Flood, has been confronting the IOF along al-Hadaf front.

Moreover, the Brigade's statement confirmed that the Resistance snipers successfully targeted an Israeli soldier at the al-Faroun roundabout.

It stated that the Brigade had successfully detected the incoming IOF convoy, allowing them to successfully “damage and disable a number of vehicles." The statement also noted that at least four IOF soldiers were confirmed wounded during confrontations at al-Hadaf front.
