In a related development, the Nablus Brigade of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad's al-Quds Brigades stated that its fighters also confronted the Israeli forces in the al-Ain camp, successfully attacking infantry forces with an improvised explosive device, resulting in confirmed casualties.
In a previously disclosed operation, the Nablus Brigades claimed responsibility for a sniper attack on June 2, 2024, which targeted an Israeli settler on Mount Gerizim. Following this, an Israeli infantry unit entered Nablus from Mount Dahia, where they were met with heavy gunfire from the al-Quds Brigades fighters, causing severe injuries.
Jenin confrontations
In Jenin, Israeli forces stormed the town of Ya'bad. According to local Palestinian sources, Israeli military vehicles raided the town from the eastern entrance, patrolled its streets and neighborhoods, and stationed themselves in the city center.
Palestinian youths resisted the incursion, resulting in confrontations. Israeli forces responded with live fire and tear gas, though no injuries or arrests were reported.
In a separate raid, the Israeli forces stormed the home of the Palestinian who carried out the Kedumim operation in the village of Baqat al-Hatab in Qalqilya in the northern West Bank.
