During the early morning hours and last night, the Israeli occupation forces launched a series of incursions into various cities and towns in the occupied West Bank.
A significant incursion took place in the city of Nablus, resulting in two civilians being wounded by gunfire in Balata refugee camp. Additionally, several individuals were injured in attacks by settlers to the south of the city.
Furthermore, in the southern part of the occupied West Bank, near Duma village, a group of Palestinians fell victim to an Israeli settler attack, causing injuries among them.
According to Ghassan Daghlas, who monitors settlements in the northern West Bank, Israeli settlers threw stones at Palestinian vehicles traveling on a road near Duma. This attack resulted in two Palestinians being injured and the windshields of their vehicle being shattered by the settlers. The injured individuals, both residents of Qusra village to the south of Nablus, received on-site medical treatment.
In another incident, a group of Palestinian passengers suffered eye injuries when Israeli settlers pursued their car near Jamma’in town, south of Nablus, and assaulted them with pepper spray.
Meanwhile, Israeli troops engaged in the bulldozing of large portions of Palestinian-owned land in the southern area of Qaryut village, south of Nablus, on the same day.
Daghlas reported that seven bulldozers belonging to the Israeli military cleared stretches of land in the western part of Qaryut as part of efforts to expand the illegal settlements of Eli and Shilo, aiming to connect them via a road.
Israeli soldiers and settlers have been intensifying their attacks against Palestinian civilians in the occupied territories, with the goal of forcibly displacing Palestinians from their lands and facilitating the expansion of illegal settlements.
Acts of violence perpetrated by Israeli settlers against Palestinians and their property are reported to be a daily occurrence across the occupied West Bank, according to human rights groups.
Video footage has emerged showing intense confrontations between the Al-Quds Brigades – Nablus Brigade – and the Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF).

In a statement, the resistance group declared that its fighters in the refugee camp are actively engaging the invading forces, employing bullets and explosive devices on multiple fronts. They further claimed to have successfully struck their targets.
The Israeli authorities persist in their aggressive campaign, specifically targeting Palestinian towns and villages like Jenin and Nablus, as they seek to suppress the Palestinian Resistance. The Resistance has dealt significant blows to the occupation forces, including a recent historic ambush in Nablus.
