Israeli forces carried out a series of invasions across the occupied West Bank on Thursday, abducting several Palestinians and breaking into homes in communities spanning Hebron in the southern West Bank, Jenin in the northern West Bank, the northern Jordan Valley, and occupied Jerusalem.
Local sources in Hebron in the southern West Bank reported that Israeli forces invaded the Khirbet Hirbet al‑Nabi area in Masafer Yatta and abducted two Palestinians, Ahmad Mohsen Rashid and Sa’id Rashid, after they confronted a group of illegal paramilitary Israeli colonizers attempting to push their livestock into Palestinian residential areas.
In a separate incident in Masafer Yatta, also in the southern West Bank, Israeli forces abducted Jabr Mohammad Awad following an attack by armed colonizers who assaulted Palestinian shepherds and attempted to steal a flock of sheep in the Wadi Abu Shaban and Rajum ‘Ali areas.
Activist Osama Makhmara said the colonizers assaulted several residents before Israeli forces invaded the area, detained multiple Palestinians, and subjected them to field interrogations.
It is worth mentioning that the soldiers also shot a Palestinian child on Thursday evening, after they invaded the town of Beit Ummar, north of Hebron.
In the northern Jordan Valley, Israeli forces abducted a young man, Yazan Murad Daraghma, after invading the Naba‘ Ghazal al‑Farisiyya community.
Human rights activist Aref Daraghma said the invasion followed incitement by colonizers who had earlier forced Palestinian residents to leave grazing lands near their tents.
Israeli forces also invaded the town of Zababda, south of Jenin in the northern West Bank, targeting shelters housing displaced families from the Jenin refugee camp.
Local sources said troops spread throughout the residential buildings used as temporary shelters since January 21, 2025, when hundreds of families were displaced after Israeli forces destroyed large sections of the refugee camp. Soldiers also broke into a residential building in the area and ransacked it.
Later in the evening, Israeli forces invaded the town of Kafr Dan, west of Jenin, deploying military vehicles and infantry throughout the streets.
Troops fired stun grenades, detained several young men, and interrogated them in the field before withdrawing.
In occupied Jerusalem, Israeli authorities delivered demolition orders targeting two homes in the Wadi Qaddum neighborhood of Silwan.
The Jerusalem Governorate said the municipality issued forced‑demolition notices to Jerusalemite residents Dawoud al‑Julani and his brother, ordering them to destroy their own homes.
In Ramallah, in the central West Bank, Israeli military bulldozers uprooted more than 1,000 olive and almond trees in Kafr Malik, east of the city.
Earlier Thursday, Israeli occupation forces carried out widespread invasions and violations across the occupied West Bank, breaking into homes, abducting residents, assaulting civilians, demolishing property, and imposing intensified restrictions in multiple cities, towns, and refugee camps.
