In Qalqilia, in the northwestern West Bank, a young Palestinian man was shot with live ammunition during an overnight Israeli military invasion of the city.
Local sources told WAFA News said the soldiers invaded Qalqilia through its eastern entrance, deployed in the Kafr Saba neighborhood, and fired live rounds toward young men. One young man was shot in the foot and taken to a hospital, where his condition was described as stable.
The sources added that soldiers fired stun grenades near al-Khilafa Mosque, broke into a residential building, and detained Hamza Zeid before releasing him.
Soldiers also broke into a home belonging to the Shawahna family and damaged its contents during the invasion.
In the Jenin governorate, in the northern West Bank, soldiers abducted four Palestinians, including two brothers, after breaking into their families’ homes.

Israeli forces also abducted Suleiman Osama Yousef ash-Shami and Ehab Jamil Salama, both from Jenin refugee camp.
The Palestinian Prisoners’ Society said Israeli forces repeatedly pressured and threatened ash-Shami’s family to compel him to turn himself in despite his deteriorating health. Salama’s family was subjected to similar pressure and threats to force him to surrender.
In the Nablus governorate, in the northern West Bank, soldiers abducted two Palestinians from Kafr Qalil, south of the city.
The soldiers invaded the village at dawn, broke into, and searched several homes, disturbed their contents, and abducted Mohammad Ramadan Abu Mustafa and Osama Mahmoud Saleh al-Qanni.

In the Ramallah and al-Bireh governorate, in the central West Bank, soldiers invaded Silwad and al-Mazra’a ash-Sharqiya, east of Ramallah, and deployed in several areas. No abductions or home break-ins were reported in either town.
Israeli forces also tightened military restrictions north of occupied Jerusalem and east of Ramallah, obstructing Palestinians’ movement.
Local sources said soldiers stopped vehicles at the Jaba’ military roadblock north of occupied Jerusalem and checked residents’ identification documents. At the same time, soldiers established a military roadblock at the entrance to Yabrud, east of Ramallah.
Colonizer Attacks and Al-Aqsa Incursion
At Al-Aqsa Mosque in occupied Jerusalem, 120 Israeli colonizers entered the courtyards through the Mughrabi Gate and performed what is known as “epic prostration” under the protection of Israeli forces.
Colonizers also attacked Palestinian homes in a Bedouin community in the at-Tibna area near Khan al-Ahmar, southeast of occupied Jerusalem, and threw stones at residents before the community confronted them.
In the Salfit governorate, in the central West Bank, three young Palestinian men were injured when Israeli colonizers severely beat them with sticks in Wadi ash-Sha’er, between Salfit city and al-Lubban ash-Sharqiya. Local sources said the three suffered deep wounds from the assault.
In the Tubas and Northern Jordan Valley governorate, colonizers stole agricultural equipment east of Tammun.
Mo’taz Bisharat, the official responsible for monitoring colonial activity in the Tubas governorate, said the stolen equipment was used to irrigate a vineyard belonging to Nathir Mohammad Bisharat in the ath-Tha’la area, east of Tammun.
In the Ramallah and al-Bireh governorate, Israeli colonizers assaulted Palestinian farmers harvesting olives in the al-Batin area, south of Sinjil, northeast of Ramallah. They also seized a vehicle belonging to one of the residents.
Demolition Notices in Abu an-Nuwwar
Israeli authorities issued demolition and stop-work notices for four residential and agricultural structures in the Abu an-Nuwwar Bedouin community, near al-Eizariya, southeast of occupied Jerusalem.
The Jerusalem Governorate said the notices came only days after Israeli authorities issued a notice to close the only road leading to Abu an-Nuwwar and the nearby al-Wadi al-A’waj and al-Mintar areas.
The Jerusalem Governorate described the successive measures as part of a policy of restrictions and siege aimed at pressuring Palestinians to leave their land.
