Israeli occupation forces carried out multiple invasions across the occupied West Bank on Saturday, breaking into homes, abducting several Palestinians, imposing movement restrictions, and intensifying military operations in towns and villages throughout the Ramallah, Bethlehem, Hebron, Qalqilia, and occupied Jerusalem districts.
In the central West Bank, the army invaded the village of al‑Mazra’a al‑Gharbiyya, northwest of Ramallah, and abducted a 15‑year‑old child, Rabea’ Ahmad Ladadwa, after breaking into his family’s home during the military incursion.
Israeli soldiers also invaded the town of Kobar, north of Ramallah, and deployed in several neighborhoods before withdrawing without reporting additional abductions.
Israeli forces later invaded the village of al‑Mughayyer, northeast of Ramallah, firing tear‑gas canisters at Palestinian homes and causing several residents to suffer the effects of inhaling gas.

Al‑Mughayyer and surrounding communities continue to face near‑daily invasions by the army, in addition to repeated attacks by illegal paramilitary Israeli colonizers targeting residents and their property.

The army also invaded the town of Beit Fajjar, south of Bethlehem, and deployed in the Old City, the Triangle area, the Deeriyya neighborhood, and the Beit al‑Taqwa area. During the invasion, soldiers climbed onto the roof of a Palestinian home and turned it into a military observation post.
In the Hebron district in the southern West Bank, Israeli forces continued to impose a full curfew on the town of Beit Ummar, north of the city, for the third consecutive day.
Local activist Mohammad Awad said the army has maintained the curfew since Thursday evening, deploying foot patrols throughout the town and breaking into several homes belonging to the Abu Ayyash and Ekhlayyil families.
The military also abducted several residents, closed main and secondary roads with concrete blocks and earth mounds, and prevented Friday prayers from being held in all local mosques. More than twenty‑five internal roads remain sealed.
In the northwestern West Bank, Israeli forces invaded the village of Kafr Qaddum, east of Qalqilia, entering through the eastern entrance and deploying in the al‑Hara al‑Shamiya and al‑Maghayir areas. Soldiers also broke into several homes during the invasion, though no abductions were reported.
The widespread invasions come amid a sharp escalation in Israeli military operations across the occupied West Bank, where soldiers continue to break into homes, impose movement restrictions, abduct residents, and reinforce military roadblocks, while colonizer attacks intensify in parallel under full military protection.
