Israeli occupation forces launched a series of coordinated incursions across the West Bank on Friday, targeting the cities of al-Khalil, Nablus, Jenin, and Tulkarm.

The incursions included home invasions, detentions, vandalism, and the destruction of public infrastructure, according to reports from local sources and the Palestinian news agency WAFA.

Home invasion, settler theft

In al-Khalil, located in the southwestern West Bank, Israeli troops stormed several neighborhoods and the nearby town of Deir Samet. The soldiers invaded homes, ransacked their contents, and searched warehouses and land near residential properties in the Asa area.

Local sources reported that the homes of prisoners Omar Obeid, Maher Obeid, and Dawoud Abu Zannouneh were specifically targeted during the operation.

Commercial, residential incursions in Nablus

Israeli occupation forces also carried out incursions in several neighborhoods in Nablus, in the northern West Bank. Homes were stormed, searched, and tampered with. In one case, troops forcibly removed the door of an agricultural supply store before conducting a full search of the premises.

Detentions, searches in Jenin

At dawn, Israeli occupation forces detained five Palestinians in the town of Burqin, west of Jenin. Among those detained were a father and his two sons. The troops stormed the home of former prisoner Sultan Khalouf and detained his father and two brothers. Khaled Assi and Anan Darwish Assi were also detained following similar home invasions.

Additional residential properties were searched in Burqin during the operation.

Tulkarm infrastructure sabotaged

Late Thursday into Friday, Israeli occupation forces stormed Beit Lid, east of Tulkarm. Military vehicles and infantry patrols swept through the town's main and side streets, conducting extensive searches.

During the incursion, occupation forces deliberately sabotaged a newly completed road project linking the villages of Nazlat Isa and Qaffin. Workers and engineers were detained, equipment was seized, and bulldozers were used to damage the freshly paved road.
