The Israeli occupation forces (IOF) have withdrawn from the town of Tubas in the occupied West Bank after a raid that lasted for over three hours, Al Mayadeen's correspondent reported, following fierce confrontations with the Palestinian Resistance. 

The IOF stormed the town of Tubas during the early hours of Tuesday but were confronted by Palestinian Resistance fighters, who detonated an Improvised Explosive Device (IED) against the invading occupation soldiers. 

The al-Qassam Brigades - Tubas confronted the invading occupation forces across several combat axes, while the al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades targeted them with machine gunfire and IEDs. 

The Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades - Youth of Revenge and Liberation announced that its fighters fiercely confronted and targeted occupation soldiers with barrages of gunfire. 

Meanwhile, the IOF arrested a Palestinian man before withdrawing from the town, following a three-hour raid.

'Israel' fears 'Lebanonization' of West Bank Resistance operations

Israeli media reported concerns within the Israeli army and intelligence leadership over the "Lebanonization" of the occupied West Bank, which reminded them of the fighting against Hezbollah in the 1990s during the occupation of southern Lebanon, and the use of explosive devices during that time.

The activities of the Palestinian Resistance in the West Bank have seen significant and notable developments since the Al-Aqsa Flood operation on October 7, with the growing use of IEDs.

Israeli channel Kan TV reported that this has become a major concern as the threat in the West Bank has become more severe recently.

According to the channel, some of the bombs contain tens of kilograms of explosive materials that are detonated remotely, with Resistance fighters planting them under the asphalt on the roads.

Israeli military experts highlighted that the occupation army uses armored bulldozers to clear the streets before other vehicles enter, triggering the explosive devices to detonate upon contact with the bulldozers.
