Israeli occupation forces invaded multiple areas across the occupied West Bank, including occupied Jerusalem, early Wednesday, deploying military reinforcements and escalating home invasions, abductions, and property seizures.
In Jenin, in the northern West Bank, Israeli troops stormed the town of al-Silah al-Harithiya, assaulted a young man during a home invasion, and left him with bruises and injuries that required hospitalization.
The same morning, forces invaded the Al-Maniyya neighborhood in Jenin city, ransacked a home, and vandalized its contents. Late Tuesday night, Israeli soldiers stopped civilian vehicles on Haifa Street, searched them, and interrogated passengers.
In a separate invasion, Israeli forces seized two homes in the town of Ya’bad, southwest of Jenin, forcibly evicting the families and converting the properties into military outposts.
The number of homes turned into military installations in Ya’bad has now reached seven. Local sources report that five additional homes remain under occupation, with repeated invasions, searches, and abuse of residents continuing for the fourth consecutive day.
In Hebron, in the southern West Bank, Israeli forces invaded several towns and abducted at least seven Palestinians.
The abducted Palestinians are Abdul-Aziz Abdul-Hamid al-Jamal and Fares Naeem Ziyada from Hebron city, Assem Rezeq al-Barbarawi, Anas and his brother Ahmad Khaled Abu Jaafar from Halhul, as well as Ayman and Amin Mohammad al-Allami from Beit Ummar. Troops also stormed the town of Deir Samet near Dura and deployed demolition vehicles in southern Hebron.
In Bethlehem district, Israeli forces abducted 19-year-old Mahmoud Hikmat Issa from the town of al-Khader after invading his family’s home near Solomon’s Pools.
Meanwhile in occupied Jerusalem, Israeli forces invaded the town of Silwan south of Al-Aqsa Mosque, accompanied by bulldozers in preparation for demolitions.
Troops spread through the Be’er Ayoub neighborhood, closed several roads, and began operations in al-Bustan, a neighborhood long targeted for forced displacement and demolition.
These coordinated invasions reflect a broader pattern of military escalation across the occupied West Bank and Jerusalem, marked by home demolitions, forced evictions, and the systematic targeting of civilians.
