Israeli occupation forces carried out widespread invasions across multiple areas of the occupied West Bank on Monday, storming towns and villages, abducting residents, firing live rounds at civilians, and imposing movement restrictions while escorting illegal paramilitary colonizers.
The coordinated assaults targeted communities in Ramallah, Jerusalem, Hebron, Nablus, Jenin, Qalqilia, Bethlehem, and Tulkarem, leaving behind damaged homes, injured civilians, seized properties, and heightened fears of further land confiscation.

The army also abducted Alaa Abu Alia and Hani Abu Alia during its invasion of al‑Mughayyer village, northeast of Ramallah, where troops provided armed protection for colonizers and fired toxic gas at homes.
Israeli forces later moved toward Sahel Marj Si‘a, and then into the Shu‘ab al‑Louz area west of al‑Mughayyer, where they abducted Mohammad Khairallah Na’san, detained several young men, and deployed additional reinforcements amid repeated attacks by soldiers and colonizers on residents and agricultural lands.

The closure of roads and military activity coincided with Israeli actions targeting lands along the road, raising fears of bulldozing, uprooting olive trees, and seizing large areas of agricultural land.
In the Qalqilia governorate in the northwestern West Bank, Israeli forces invaded the city from its main eastern entrance with several military vehicles and deployed in the Naqqar neighborhood.
