Israeli occupation forces and illegal paramilitary Israeli colonizers carried out multiple violation across the occupied West Bank on Sunday, including invasions of Palestinian towns, the abduction of residents, the seizure of equipment, and assaults on communities in areas surrounding occupied Jerusalem, Bethlehem, Hebron, Ramallah, and Jericho.
Israeli forces invaded the town of Doha, west of Bethlehem in the southern West Bank, and positioned themselves around the Balqees wedding hall, where they closed the main street and prevented the movement of vehicles.
The invasion disrupted the movement of residents in the surrounding area and created heightened tension.
Local sources noted that Israeli forces had invaded the same wedding hall the previous day, assaulted a Palestinian man, and detained several others.
In Hebron, in the southern West Bank, the soldiers invaded Wadi Al-Qarshiya area in Masafer Yatta, south of the city, before demolishing several residential structures and barns.
In occupied Jerusalem, Israeli forces invaded the Al‑Mishal area of Al‑‘Eizariya, east of the city, and broke into a Palestinian‑owned facility threatened with demolition.
Soldiers abducted the owner, Mohammad Abu Ghalia, and assaulted his brother, Yahia Abu Ghalia, during the invasion.
The facility is among several structures in the area facing demolition orders as part of ongoing Israeli measures targeting Palestinian presence and facilitating colonial expansion in and around occupied Jerusalem.

In Ramallah in the central West Bank, Israeli forces invaded the village of Deir Ibzi‘, west of the city, and seized a bulldozer that was operating in the area before withdrawing. The seizure disrupted ongoing agricultural and construction work.
Also, a group of colonizers released their livestock to graze on Palestinian lands in the Ein Abu Shahin area in Atara village, north of Ramallah.
In Jericho in the eastern West Bank, illegal paramilitary Israeli colonizers invaded the Arab al‑Ka’abna area north of the town of an-Nu’eima, northwest of the city, and assaulted residents and their property.
The Al‑Baidar Organization for the Defense of Bedouin Rights stated that the colonizers detained several residents, assaulted them, and vandalized property.
The organization reported that colonizers also stole money and gold jewelry, causing fear and tension among the community. The group described the attack as a dangerous escalation targeting the safety and stability of Palestinian residents.
Earlier Sunday, Israeli forces carried out a series of invasions across the occupied West Bank, including occupied Jerusalem, during which soldiers abducted several Palestinians, installed military roadblocks, and delivered new land‑seizure notices for colonialist expansion.
These incidents form part of the ongoing pattern of Israeli military invasions, land seizures, and colonizer violence across the occupied West Bank, which continue to impact Palestinian communities through property destruction, movement restrictions, and the expansion of colonial control.
