In the northern West Bank, Palestinian Resistance fighters are confronting an Israeli aggression that has been ongoing for over a week.
The Palestinian Islamic Jihad's (PIJ) al-Quds Brigades formations in the West Bank are leading the defense against Israeli occupation forces, where their fighters engaged in 14 distinct armed confrontations in the past three days.
The group's Jenin Brigade detonated six improvised explosive devices on various axes of confrontation in the governorate of Jenin. The PIJ's military wing's media unit said that the detonation of these devices led to mass casualties and losses among occupation forces.
Al-Quds Brigades has dubbed the current confrontations "The Horror of The Camps" and has consistently released field updates to the public.
In the governorate of Tulkarm, the brigades' Tulkarm Brigade, lured an Israeli infantry force to an ambush point in the al-Balawna area, where it says that Israeli soldiers were killed and injured in the pre-planned attack.
Fighters in Tulkarm also detonated four IEDs and engaged occupation forces in seven distinct armed confrontations.

Meanwhile, the Nablus Brigade engaged occupation forces in four fierce confrontations and detonated a single explosive device.
Several other Resistance factions announced military operations in the occupied West Bank, including a Fatah splinter group, Fatah al-Intifada, whose military wing, al-Aasifa Forces, fiercely confronted occupation forces in Tulkarm.
The al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades in Nablus managed to detonate a highly explosive device targeting invading Israeli forces in Nablus' Street 16.
Hamas' al-Qassam Brigades said its fighters, alongside Resistance fighters from other factions, inflicted casualties on Israeli occupation soldiers in the Tulkarm refugee camp.
On August 28, 2024, the Israeli regime launched a wide-scale aggression on the occupied West Bank, which killed dozens and destroyed massive amounts of infrastructure.
'Israel' prevents UN assessment team from reaching Jenin
In a related context, UN spokesperson Stephane Dujarric said that the Israeli occupation army refused to allow a UN assessment team to reach the city of Jenin in the northern occupied West Bank, which comes as part of "Israel's" systematic policy of inflicting as much suffering as possible on the Palestinians,
Dujarric slammed the Israeli military's use of "lethal warfare methods", which resulted in the increased loss of Palestinian lives.
He added that the barriers preventing access to the West Bank have affected humanitarian aid and that the entry of ambulances and medical teams has been obstructed for a week.
Dujarric indicated that the United Nations is following developments in the West Bank and the Gaza Strip, indicating that "developments are going in the wrong direction."
The Israeli occupation forces continued their onslaught against the city of Jenin and its camp for the eighth consecutive day.
The onslaught resulted so far in the killing of 19 people, the injury and arrest of dozens, in addition to the widespread destruction of citizens' properties and infrastructure, including water and electricity networks.
In parallel, the Israeli occupation continues its genocide against Palestinians in the Gaza Strip, highlighting the regime's all-out war against Palestine and its people. However, Palestinian Resistance fighters, in both territories, have continued to valiantly resist the US-backed Israeli regime's efforts to eradicate their people.
