Palestinian Resistance fighters in the occupied West Bank confronted Israeli occupation forces that raided multiple towns in the territory on Saturday.
Al Mayadeen's correspondent reported that occupation forces stormed the town of Beita in Nablus and were confronted by locals.
Our correspondent said that a special Israeli force, supported by several armored vehicles, stormed the town of Qalqilya, which lies on the western side of the West Bank, near several Israeli-occupied cities.
Locals also reported on a raid on the village of Odala in Nablus and the village of Kafr Sur in Tulkarm.
In the latter, a Palestinian was wounded by live Israeli gunfire near the Jabara checkpoint.
In Sinjel, Ramallah, occupation forces stormed the town on Saturday, as the Israeli government carried out its policy of maximum pressure against Palestinians in the West Bank.
Israeli settlers participated in attacks on Palestinians, as a group of illegal settlers attacked residential buildings in the Wadi Rahal, south of Beit Lahm.
On the other hand, al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades in Tulkarm said that its fighters attacked occupation forces near the Shweika Gate, the western entrance into the city. The group confirmed direct hits against the enemy's troops.
Israeli occupation authorities detain 25 Palestinians
Earlier on Saturday, occupation forces raided several other towns, including the Ein camp in Nablus.
In that attack, the Palestinian Red Crescent said that two Palestinians were injured by live Israeli gunfire, adding that the wounded were transported to a hospital.
Our correspondent also reported that the occupation's military raided the Shweika suburb in Tulkarm and the town of Beit Ummar in al-Khalil on Saturday morning. Other villages were raided including, Shuqba, Budrus, and Azzun.
In a similar context, the Commission of Detainees and Ex-Detainees' Affairs and the Palestinian Prisoners Society said that Israeli occupation forces detained at least 25 Palestinians in the occupied West Bank, including former detainees over a period of 24 hours.
The scare tactics utilized by Israeli occupation forces aim to deter Palestinians from supporting the Palestinian Resistance, especially as the Israeli war on Gaza rages on for the 260th day.
