Israeli occupation forces abducted several Palestinians and invaded multiple areas across the occupied West Bank, Wednesday, including Tubas in the northeastern West Bank, Jericho in the eastern West Bank, Hebron in the southern West Bank, and Ramallah in the central West Bank.
In the northeastern West Bank, Israeli forces abducted a young man from the city of Tubas. The director of the Palestinian Prisoners’ Society office in Tubas, Kamal Bani Odah, stated that the soldiers abducted 21‑year‑old Saleh Yassin Mahmoud Daraghma while he was working in agriculture in the city of Jericho.
In occupied Jerusalem, the Israeli authorities issued a six‑month banishment order against Rami Al‑Khatib, a staff member of the Islamic Waqf’s Media Department, preventing him from entering the Al‑Aqsa Mosque and its surrounding area.
The Islamic Waqf said the order is part of ongoing restrictions targeting its employees and the administration of the holy site.
In Bethlehem, several Israeli military vehicles invaded the town of Tuqu’, east of the city, closed multiple streets—including the town center and the Al‑‘Amour neighborhood—and then stormed the home of Daoud Al‑‘Amour.
The soldiers ransacked the home while searching it and assaulted Al‑‘Amour along with several members of his family.
In the southern West Bank, Israeli forces abducted several members of the Salhab family in the Qalqas area south of Hebron after they confronted an attack by illegal colonizers against their lands.
In a separate incident, soldiers invaded Khirbet Al‑Kharaba near the town of As‑Samu’, also south of Hebron, and carried out searches in the area.
In the central West Bank, the army detained and assaulted several Palestinian youths at the ‘Ein Al‑Haramiya junction north of Ramallah.
In addition, Palestinian youths protested an Israeli military invasion of the village of Al‑Mazra’a Al‑Sharqiya east of Ramallah.
In the town of Silwad, northeast of Ramallah, soldiers invaded the area, stormed a fuel station, and triggered additional confrontations with local residents.
In the southern West Bank, Israeli forces abducted four Palestinians in the Masafer Yatta region south of Hebron after illegal colonizers attacked Palestinian shepherds in the Wadi Abu Shaban area.
Local sources reported that the shepherds were assaulted by colonizers, after which Israeli forces arrived and abducted the Palestinians instead of intervening to stop the attack.
