At least five young men were wounded and 10 others were wounded during a Saturday Israeli arrest campaign in the town of Qatanna, northwest of occupied al-Quds.

The Israeli occupation forces stormed several Palestinian towns in the occupied West Bank and carried out several arrests and searches in numerous houses.

The Israeli occupation forces also arrested two young men from the town of Ya'bad at a military checkpoint north of Ramallah.

Moreover, a young man was injured by the Israeli occupation forces after they invaded the town of Balaa, east of Tulkarm, and opened fire at civilians. Three citizens, including two women from the Shweika suburb to the north, were also arrested.

Local sources reported that the young man was shot in one of his legs and was transported to the Thabet Thabet Government Hospital in Tulkarm.

The sources added that a large military force from the occupation forces stormed the town, deploying snipers on a high-rise building amid confrontations between citizens and occupation soldiers who opened fire at the civilians.

Earlier in the day, the Israeli occupation forces also arrested six citizens in al-Khalil, including workers from the Gaza Strip.

Sources told Al Mayadeen on Friday that Israeli occupation forces conducted massive raids in various areas of cities in the West Bank at dawn. Confrontations broke out as Palestinians resisted the Israeli raids. 

The Palestinian Ministry of Health announced the martyrdom of the young Palestinian, Asid al-Rimawi, (17 years old), by occupation bullets during their raid into the town of Beit Rima, northwest of the city of Ramallah. Four others were injured, including two reported in critical condition.

At the outset of the raid, local Palestinian media reported, "Seven injuries caused by occupation gunfire were transferred to the clinic in the town of Beit Rima." Additionally, it stated that the occupation army detained three young men after firing at them in an ambush during the town's raid.

In Nablus, in the northern and central West Bank, the occupation forces invaded the Balata refugee camp, where resistance fighters and the IOF engaged in confrontations after the occupation raided the camp. 

The Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades announced, in a brief statement, that their fighters ambushed an Israeli military force after the invasion of the Balata camp, targeting them with gunfire and explosives, injuring Israeli occupation soldiers. 

The Palestinian Red Crescent stated that the Israeli occupation army directly fired at ambulance vehicles, preventing medical crews and ambulances from reaching the injured in the Hashashin neighborhood of Balata camp. Media sources also confirmed the injury of a young man by Israeli gunfire inside the camp.

It is worth noting that the Israeli raid and arrest campaigns into cities and camps in the West Bank have been ongoing since October 7th. This continuous aggression coincides with the ongoing Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip, which has entered its 91st day.
