Israeli occupation forces carried out multiple violations across the occupied West Bank on Sunday, including the destruction of agricultural land, the uprooting of olive trees, and a series of invasions targeting several towns and villages in the northern and central West Bank.
In the northern West Bank, Israeli forces, accompanied by two military bulldozers, invaded the town of Burqa, northwest of Nablus, where they bulldozed privately owned land adjacent to the main road and uprooted several olive trees.
Media sources said the army had delivered notices to landowners about a month earlier informing them of plans to level the land and remove the trees.
Also in the northern West Bank, Israeli forces bulldozed agricultural land in Khirbet Sarouj near the town of al-Yamun, west of Jenin.
Local sources reported that military bulldozers began leveling large areas of farmland while soldiers erected a tent at the site.
Residents had received notices approximately two weeks earlier informing them of the army’s intention to seize the land in preparation for establishing an illegal colony.
In the central West Bank, Israeli forces invaded several villages in the Ramallah and al-Bireh district. Media sources said troops invaded the villages of Abwein and Aroura, west of Ramallah, before moving into the nearby village of Jaljulia.
The soldiers also invaded the village of al-Mughayyer, northeast of Ramallah, firing stun grenades and gas bombs.
Furthermore, the army invaded the town of Kobar, north of Ramallah, before spreading throughout several areas of the town, though no abductions or home invasions were reported.
In occupied Jerusalem, a Palestinian youth was shot and injured by Israeli soldiers in the town of al-Ram, north of the city.
The Palestinian Red Crescent Society said its medical teams treated a young man who was shot in the leg with live ammunition near the illegal Annexation Wall and transported him to hospital.
In the southern West Bank, Israeli forces abducted a young man from the village of al-Maniya, southeast of Bethlehem. Media sources said the army abducted 34-year-old Anwar Abdul-Aziz Jabarin at the military roadblock known as “Container,” northeast of Bethlehem, after forcing him out of the vehicle he was traveling in and detaining him for an extended period.
