On Tuesday, Israeli occupation forces invaded several areas across the occupied West Bank, abducting civilians and intensifying their military campaign against Palestinian communities.
In Ramallah and Al-Bireh governorate, in the central West Bank, the soldiers stormed the village of Beit Sira, west of Ramallah, and abducted three Palestinians after invading their homes and ransacking their belongings.
The abducted individuals were identified as Mohammad Diab Al-Hajj (37), Fadel Ahmad Taha (49), and Mohammad Nimer Khattab (65).
In a separate incident, Israeli forces abducted Tamim Musleh from the at-Tira neighborhood in Ramallah while he was passing through a military roadblock near Jericho.
Meanwhile, three young men from the village of Rammun, east of Ramallah, were detained and subjected to field interrogation before being released.
They were identified as Ali Haroun Kahla (22), his brother Rashid Haroun Kahla (20), and Majdi Maher Kahla (45).
Occupation forces also invaded Al-Balou’ neighborhood in Al-Bireh, as well as the towns of Birzeit and Kobar north of Ramallah, deploying military vehicles throughout residential streets.
In Salfit governorate, in the central West Bank, Israeli forces abducted Thaer and his brother Mohammad Bassam Sharif Daoud after invading their family home in the village of Haris, west of Salfit city.
The house was searched and its contents vandalized. Local sources reported that a large military force invaded the town, spread through its neighborhoods, and transferred the brothers to an undisclosed location, sparking tension among residents.
Salfit continues to face systematic invasions and abductions targeting civilians and their property.
These violations have escalated in recent weeks, coinciding with colonizers’ attacks on agricultural lands and roads near illegal colonies.
In Tulkarem, in the northwestern West Bank, Israeli forces abducted a young man amid the ongoing military assault on the city and its refugee camps, Tulkarem and Nour Shams, which has persisted for 205 consecutive days.
Media sources said Israeli foot patrols roamed the city’s streets, particularly Nablus Street, before surrounding the area around Thabet Thabet Government Hospital. The military obstructed traffic, causing severe congestion.
Furthermore, the soldiers fired live ammunition and stun grenades at civilians before abducting a young man, blindfolding, and shackling him. His identity remains unknown.
Separately, Israeli forces invaded the village of Awarta, south of Nablus in the northern West Bank, continuing their widespread campaign of incursions across the northern West Bank.
Also in Nablus, the army invaded al-Lubban ash-Sharqiya village, south of the city, and confiscated the keys of four Palestinian cars.
Media sources said the soldiers confiscated the keys of four vehicles as their owners attempted to bypass the sand barrier sealing the village’s main entrance.
They added that the soldiers assaulted the drivers and forced them to close the rugged dirt openings.
On Tuesday night, many military vehicles invaded Odala village, south of Nablus, and initiated searches of property.
In a related development, another Israeli military unit erected a checkpoint inside the village, obstructing civilian movement through its only northern access point. Several military vehicles also patrolled the village streets.
In Bethlehem governorate, Israeli forces abducted Sultan Kawazba (43) from the village of Al-Minya, southeast of the city, after storming his home and vandalizing its contents.
His brother, village council head Zayed Kawazba, said the soldiers caused damage to Sultan’s home before abducting him.
Also Tuesday, groups of illegal Israeli paramilitary colonizers conducted a series of violations against Palestinians and their property across the occupied West Bank, resulting in injuries, destruction, and further entrenchment of colonial control.
