Israeli occupation forces carried out massive invasions across the occupied West Bank, including occupied Jerusalem, abducting at least 21 civilians—including children—and damaging agricultural infrastructure in the northern Jordan Valley. Among the abductees is a teenage boy who was shot by the soldiers. Israeli colonizer attacks also continued against Palestinian farmers harvesting their olive trees.
In Tulkarem, located in the northwestern West Bank, Israeli occupation forces abducted four Palestinians. Mohammad Mخhannad Masarwa and Muthanna Mufid Radwan were taken from their homes in the town of Zeita, while Ahmad Abu Qusaydu and Mohammad Shubeiki were abducted after the army invaded a private vehicle garage on Nablus Street, adjacent to Nur Shams refugee camp.
In Qalqilia, located in the northwestern West Bank, Israeli occupation forces carried out a wide-scale invasion of the town of Azzun, accompanied by acts of vandalism and intimidation against residents. During the invasion, several Palestinians were abducted, including a 10-year-old child. Those abducted from Azzun include Saeed Mazeed Saleem, Mohammad Mahmoud Ghanawi, Yahya Yousef Ghanawi, Hassan Hawari and his son Wahbi, Laith Jihad Saleem, and the child Khattab Ashraf Hussein (10). Additionally, Khaled Shadi Shreim was abducted from the city of Qalqilia.
In Nablus, in the northern West Bank, the soldiers abducted Fadi Muna from his home on Ksheika Street. They also invaded the town of Huwara, south of the city, and abducted Mo’men Nafez Odeh after storming and searching his residence.
In the town of al-Judeira, northwest of occupied Jerusalem, Israeli forces opened live fire on two Palestinian boys—Mohammad Abdullah Teim and Mohammad Rashad Fadel Qassem—near the apartheid wall in the upper neighborhood. One of the boys was injured, though the nature of his wounds and identity remain unclear. Both were subsequently abducted by the soldiers.
In the Hindaza area east of Bethlehem, Israeli occupation forces abducted Mohammad Issa Abu Jalgheef (30) and Hussein Khalaf Abu Jalgheef (55) after invading and ransacking their homes. Additional homes were also invaded, with reports of physical assaults against residents and deliberate property damage.
In related news, illegal paramilitary Israeli colonizers sabotaged irrigation infrastructure in the al-Farisiya area of the northern Jordan Valley. Local sources confirmed that colonizers cut and destroyed water networks serving dozens of agricultural dunums, leaving crops without irrigation.
In Ramallah, in the central West Bank, Israeli colonizers attacked a farmer while he was harvesting his olive trees in the town of Sinjil, north of the city, before stealing his produce. The attack occurred in front of Israeli soldiers, who fired gas bombs at the Palestinians instead of removing the assailants.
Similar acts of sabotage have been reported in recent days, reflecting a systematic campaign to target Palestinian farmland.
