Al-Quds Brigades - Tubas Brigade confirmed on Friday morning that its fighters are engaged in violent confrontations with the IOF in the city on multiple fronts.

The Tubas Brigade said in a brief statement, "Our freedom fighters are engaged in confrontations on multiple fronts using heavy gunfire and explosive devices with Israeli occupation forces attempting to infiltrate the town."

"Our freedom fighters targeted an IOF infantry force in the vicinity of the besieged house, using heavy gunfire, and direct hits were achieved," the statement read. 

Al Mayadeen's correspondent reported that four Palestinians were injured as they confronted Israeli occupation forces trying to storm the city of Tubas.

Medical sources reported that one Palestinian received a gunshot wound to the head, with his condition described as moderate to serious, while the other was injured by a rubber-coated metal bullet in the abdomen after the occupation forces opened fire using live ammunition and rubber bullets.

Later, our correspondent confirmed that Palestinian youth Abdul Rahim Fayez Awad Ghannam (36) succumbed to his head injuries after being shot by IOF.

In the meantime, Israeli occupation forces prevented medical crews from transporting the injured to the hospital for treatment for more than an hour.

Our correspondent reported that the IOF bombed a house in Tubas in the northern West Bank after its occupants refused to surrender themselves, resulting in confrontations in the area.

Violent confrontations broke out on Friday morning between Resistance fighters and Israeli occupation forces, which stormed the town of 'Aqqaba, Tubas, in the northern occupied West Bank, our correspondent reported. 

Local sources reported that the IOF besieged a house and demanded that Palestinian youth Ahmad Abu Arra turn himself in.

The sources added that the occupation forces targeted the besieged house with man-portable shells, as more Israeli military reinforcements were brought in.

Eyewitnesses said, "The occupation army stormed the Turkish Hospital and deployed its snipers on top of one of its buildings during its storming of Tubas."

Al Mayadeen’s correspondent later reported that the IOF withdrew from the town of 'Aqqaba, north of Tubas, having failed to arrest the Palestinian youth Ahmad Abu Arra, and took instead both of his parents and his sister.

Following the news of the IOF's failure to arrest Ahmad, the people of Tubas took to the streets to celebrate.

At dawn on Wednesday, the IOF launched a massive campaign of incursions and raids across the West Bank, including various governorates, during which they arrested 16 Palestinians. Their campaign included unauthorized searches and vandalism of people’s houses and properties, resulting in armed confrontations.

Also on Wednesday, one Palestinian youth was seriously injured after Israeli occupation forces opened fire on him under the pretext that he had carried out a ramming operation near the city of Al-Khalil, in the southern West Bank. Israeli media reported that the operation also resulted in the injury of one Israeli soldier.
