The Israeli aggression continues for the 12th consecutive day, as the Israeli occupation forces (IOF) escalate and expand raids and arrest campaigns across several towns, cities, and neighborhoods in the occupied West Bank. 

During the early hours of Monday, the IOF was confronted by Palestinian Resistance fighters during the raid of the Balata camp in the city of Nablus, northernmost West Bank. 

The Balata Brigades - Youth of Revenge and Liberation and Nablus Brigades - the al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades reported that its fighters targeted the occupation forces storming the Balata camp and its vicinity with barrages of bullets while fiercely confronting them. 

On its part, the al-Quds Brigades - Tulkarm Battalion announced that its fighters confronted the IOF across all combat axes in the Tulkarm camp. 

This comes after the IOF stormed the Tulkarm camp and bulldozed some of its roads.

The IOF also expanded their raids in the southern West Bank, particularly in al-Khalil and Beit Lahm. 

In a related context, the Palestinian Red Crescent Society reported that a Palestinian youth sustained injuries after being shot by the IOF during the raid on the town of al-Obaidiya near Beit Lahm. 

The IOF also arrested Mahmoud Mateer after storming his home in the Qalandiya camp, located between occupied al-Quds, al-Bireh, and Ramallah. Occupation forces also stormed the Shuafat camp in occupied al-Quds.

Apocalyptic West Bank war preventable by Gaza ceasefire: Israeli media

Israeli occupation forces are trying to prevent a "full-fledged" Intifada in the occupied West Bank and taking a series of decisions that have displeased illegal settlers. The military is also warning of Israeli ministers' actions, which are bringing the occupied territory closer to an apocalyptic scene. 

Among such decisions is the removal of multiple land barriers in the territory, hoping that allowing Palestinians easier movement in the occupied territory would prevent the entire population of the West Bank from joining acts of resistance. 

"Therefore, contrary to the demands of the settlers in [in the West Bank], the IDF is removing barriers that were imposed following the car bombings (in al-Khalil) and tries to allow the population as much freedom of movement and livelihood as possible," Ron Ben Yishai, a veteran Israeli war correspondent, wrote for the Ynet news website. 

The war correspondent pointed to the pressure employed by Israeli authorities against Palestinians in the West Bank, including bans on work permits, which is encouraging Palestinians to join the Resistance. 

Ben Yishai reported that fears are rising of a "mass attack" by Palestinians on illegal Israeli settlements near them. 

He also cited the Israeli military command's belief that unless appropriate security measures are taken in the West Bank, the territory "will not ease."
