Israeli occupation forces carried out widespread invasions across several districts of the occupied West Bank at dawn Wednesday, breaking into homes, abducting multiple Palestinians, and imposing new movement restrictions, while illegal paramilitary Israeli colonizers vandalized vehicles east of Nablus.
In the town of Al‑Lubban ash‑Sharqiya, south of Nablus in the northern West Bank, soldiers invaded the area before sunrise and abducted Mo’men Mohammad Suleiman Oweis after breaking into his family’s home, assaulting his father, and destroying household property.
A second military unit returned to the village later, invading several homes and conducting field interrogations, including inside the home of citizen Jawad Samara.
In nearby Beita, also south of Nablus, Israeli forces abducted Farouq Majdi Hamayel after breaking into and searching his home.
Furthermore, illegal paramilitary Israeli colonizers infiltrated the Aqaba area on the eastern side of Beit Dajan, east of Nablus, and punctured the tires of several vehicles parked near Palestinian homes. Residents said the attack occurred shortly before dawn.
In Qalqilia in the northwestern West Bank, Israeli forces abducted two Palestinians during invasions targeting the city and the nearby town of Hableh.
Soldiers invaded Qalqilia from its southern entrance, deploying four military vehicles around the Yousef Odah School while infantry units spread out near the old Hableh junction and the Birin area.
The military broke into the home of Wael Harb Daoud, abducted him, and withdrew after an hour‑and‑a‑half operation. The soldiers also abducted Adi Bassam Abdullah Mardawi after breaking into and searching his home, leaving extensive damage.
In the village of al‑Mazra’a al‑Gharbiya, northwest of Ramallah in the central West Bank, Israeli forces abducted Mohammad Shreitah, 28, after breaking into his home during a dawn invasion.
Israeli forces also sealed all entrances to the town of Sinjil, north of Ramallah in the central West Bank, isolating the community.
Mayor Mo’taz Tawafsha said the military closed every main and secondary road using bulldozers and earth mounds, leaving only a single passage toward western villages. Soldiers then broke into several homes without reporting abductions.
Sinjil has faced an unprecedented siege, surrounded by military infrastructure: a military roadblock and gate to the north, a 1.5‑kilometer razor‑wire fence to the east that confiscated 30 dunams of fertile land, and a permanently closed iron gate at the main eastern entrance.
To the south, illegal paramilitary colonizers continue attempts to seize Jabal al‑Batin and the archaeological site of Khirbet at‑Tal by establishing a colonial outpost under military protection.
The fence has isolated 47 homes from the town, leaving residents dependent on a single monitored entrance controlled by soldiers.
Furthermore, dozens of soldiers invaded the Qalandia refugee camp, north of occupied Jerusalem, and conducted extensive searches after closing several alleys.
In the Dheisheh refugee camp, south of Bethlehem in the southern West Bank, Israeli forces invaded the camp, broke into numerous homes, and detained 25 Palestinians. The detainees were held for several hours inside the Phoenix Hall, where soldiers conducted field interrogations before releasing them.
South of Tubas in the northeastern West Bank, Israeli forces detained a veterinary team working in the Ras al‑Ahmar area, obstructing their work, and preventing them from accessing livestock in need of care.
This report documents some of the invasions, abductions, and violations reported and verified at the time of publication and cannot cover all incidents due to the continuity of these invasions across the occupied West Bank.
