The Nablus Battalion in Al-Quds Brigades announced that it targeted Israeli forces and vehicles on Hittin Street with heavy bullets.
The battalion affirmed that its fighters continue to confront the IOF and its special units, targeting them with large salvos of bullets.
Eyewitnesses said that the armed confrontations erupted after the IOF stormed the city at approximately 6h30 am and besieged a house in the Al-Halaba neighborhood of the Old City.

The Palestinian Red Crescent announced that its crews in Nablus dealt with 69 injuries with live bullets, seven of which were critical.
In a statement, the Red Crescent said that 14 people were treated on the spot and 13 were injured by gas suffocation.
Medical sources reported that the Israeli occupation forces targeted an ambulance transporting the wounded.
At a later time, the Israeli occupation sent reinforcements to the city of Nablus as confrontations continued with the Resistance fighters.
The confrontations in Nablus come two days after the Egyptian-mediated armistice agreement between "Israel" and the PIJ movement entered into force, starting at 11:30 pm on Sunday.
Al Mayadeen private sources confirmed that an agreement had been reached on a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip, with the fulfillment of the PIJ's demands in full.
The Israeli occupation launched on August 5 an aggression on the Gaza Strip, and Al-Quds Brigades announced that Tayseer Al-Jaabari, a military commander in the northern Gaza Strip, had been martyred.
Consequently, Al-Quds Brigades launched an operation in response to the Israeli occupation's aggression on the Gaza Strip, by launching salvoes of rockets toward the occupied Palestinian territories.
