On Sunday, December 14, 2025, Israeli occupation forces carried out a series of invasions and abductions across multiple areas of the occupied West Bank, targeting towns, villages, and refugee camps from Tubas in the northeast to Hebron in the south.
Tubas (Northeastern West Bank)
In the town of Tammun, south of Tubas, Israeli forces abducted Bara’ Khudair Bani Odah, 26, while he was passing through a sudden military roadblock in the Atouf area east of the town. His private vehicle was seized.
Ramallah (Central West Bank)
Protests erupted in the village of Aboud, northwest of Ramallah, after Israeli forces invaded the area. No injuries or abductions were reported.
Invasions were also carried out in Deir Jarir, Turmus Ayya, and Kafr Malik, where soldiers spread through neighborhoods but did not report abductions.
In al-Mughayyir, Israeli forces abducted Rasmi Mohammad Abu Alia, 55, after storming and ransacking his home. He had been abducted last week and later released.
Troops also invaded the Abu Hammam hamlet south of the village, searching for international peace activists.
Later in the day, Israeli forces reinforced their presence in Deir Jarir, erecting a military roadblock in the center of the village, stopping vehicles, and inspecting IDs.
Salfit (Central West Bank)
At dawn, Israeli forces invaded the town of az-Zawiya, west of Salfit, abducting nine residents, including siblings.
The abductees are Yazan and Nour Amin Abu Leila, Mohammad and Rami Adnan Bakr, Yahya Amjad Shouqi, Abdel-Fattah Raed Qaddous, Fayeq Asfour, Nasser Nassim Farah, and Mohammad Alaa Yusuf Nofal.
Homes were stormed and ransacked during the invasion. Residents report weeks of intensified pressure, including nightly invasions, repeated abductions, and the installation of military roadblocks restricting movement.
Hebron (Southern West Bank)
On Sunday evening, 23 year old Mohammad Wael al-Sharouf was killed by Israeli occupation forces at the northern entrance of Hebron.
At the entrance to al-Arroub refugee camp, Israeli forces abducted several young men, assaulting them before releasing them. In Ethna towns, west of Hebron, soldiers vandalized vehicles, slashing tires and smashing windows.
Bethlehem
In Battir, west of Bethlehem, Israeli forces installed a military roadblock in the Shorafa area along the main road to the western countryside, stopping cars and checking IDs, causing heavy traffic congestion.
The soldiers also invaded Husan town, west of Bethlehem, closed streets and initiated searches.
Occupied Jerusalem
A 28‑year‑old Palestinian was shot in the leg by Israeli forces at the Qalandia military north of occupied Jerusalem. He was transferred to hospital by Palestinian Red Crescent medics.
Later, illegal Israeli paramilitary colonizers blocked traffic at the Jaba’ junction, north of Jerusalem, erecting a large Star of David installation under police protection.
In Silwan, south of Al‑Aqsa Mosque, Israeli forces set up a military roadblock at the entrance to the al‑Jisr area, stopping vehicles and checking IDs. Troops also invaded the al‑Bustan neighborhood.
Jenin (Northern West Bank)
Israeli forces invaded Qabatia, south of Jenin, closing several roads as students were leaving school, disrupting movement. Troops also obstructed traffic in the Khallet al‑Saha area of Jenin city.
Tulkarem (Northwestern West Bank)
At dawn, Israeli forces abducted Sa’ad Ahmad Mousa Qassem, a former political prisoner, after storming his home in the Ektaba neighborhood east of Tulkarem.
Troops reinforced their presence in central Tulkarem, deploying vehicles and infantry near Thabet Thabet Square, Nablus Street, Jamal Abdel-Nasser Square, and the vegetable market.
Soldiers stopped cars, subjected drivers to field interrogations, and held them for extended periods.
Meanwhile, the siege of Tulkarem and Nur Shams refugee camps entered its 322nd day, with residents barred from entering or leaving. Heavy gunfire was reported inside the refugee camps at regular intervals.
Nablus (Northern West Bank):
Israeli soldiers invaded Qabalan town, southeast of Nablus, searched homes and confiscated a Palestinian car.
The widespread invasions, abductions, and military roadblock across the occupied West Bank highlight the intensifying campaign of collective punishment by Israeli forces.
From Tubas to Hebron, and from Salfit to occupied Jerusalem and Tulkarem, Palestinian communities continue to face daily incursions, restrictions on movement, and escalating violations by Israeli soldiers and paramilitary colonizers.
On Saturday, Israeli forces killed the Palestinian child, Mohammad Eyad Mohammad Abahra (16 years old) and confiscated his body, after shooting him in the town of Silat al-Harithiya, northwest of Jenin in the northern West Bank.
