Palestinian Resistance fighters are confronting Israeli occupation forces that raided the city of Tubas in the occupied West Bank early on Monday morning. 

Confrontations are ongoing in other towns and refugee camps, as the occupation's military carries on its vicious war on Palestinians in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank. 

To the southeast of Nablus, in the Balata refugee camp, occupation forces admitted that a soldier was wounded during confrontations with Resistance fighters, earlier on Monday dawn. The Israeli occupation's military had launched an incursion into Balata in the early hours of Monday. 

Our correspondents in the West Bank reported that a large Israeli force, composed of several armored convoys and military-grade bulldozers, invaded the camp. The force was confronted by Resistance fighters, armed with assault rifles and improvised explosive devices.

Further to the south of the occupied territory, occupation forces raided the town of Beit Ummar, located in the northern al-Khalil governorate. According to local sources, confrontations broke out in several of the town's neighborhoods, as the occupation's military raided several homes and commercial stores.

Due to the brutality employed by occupation forces during the raids, a group of local youths confronted the occupation forces who fired live bullets, stun grenades, and tear gas canisters at Palestinians. The incident led to several injuries, which were limited to cases of suffocation. 

In detail, local sources said that occupation forces raided the home of Khaled Abu Maria and physically assaulted him and members of his family. The occupation forces also vandalized the Abu Maria family's home and destroyed their personal belongings. 

The city of al-Khalil, the capital of the governorate, was also raided by occupation forces, in which multiple Palestinian citizens were detained. The list of detainees included Abdul Karim al-Aajlouni and Ihab Burqan.

Israeli soldiers, settlers intensify their assault on Palestinians

Earlier on Sunday, Israeli settlers, backed by occupation forces, attacked the village of Burqa to the east of Ramallah and set fire to a livestock shed. Increased attacks by fanatic Israeli settlers have also been paired with continuous and intensifying Israeli military raids on Palestinian towns. 

Citing the head of the town's council, Sayel Kanaan, the Palestinian News and Information Agency (WAFA) said that settlers attacked the village from the northern and western sides, setting a shed used for raising sheep ablaze. 

Illegal settlements and colonial outposts surround the small Palestinian town, whose residents and properties have been subject to attacks from both military forces and fanatic extremist settlers. According to WAFA, settlers also attempted to break into a Palestinian home located in the town's northside and other buildings to the west. 

The colonists also tried to break into a house on the northern side, in addition to other houses on the western side of the village.

In Beit Lahm, occupation forces were deployed to a local mosque in the town of Harmala, where they prevented worshippers and locals from entering or leaving its premises. This led to confrontations with locals and the firing of tear gas canisters and live bullets. 

To the east of Tulkarm, in the towns of Anabta and Kfar al-Labad, occupation forces stormed the towns' streets, raiding several areas as they attempted to establish inspection points, however, they were confronted by locals. As a result, no detainments were reported in the area.
