Following the Israeli occupation army’s resounding defeat in the town of Jenin, in which they failed to achieve any of their goals including eradicating resistance and restoring Zionist deterrence, tensions remain high in the West Bank.
In a new wave of violence, Israeli occupation forces have launched a series of raids and arrests across the area, including the arrest of children Taymour al-Qasrawi and Ishaq Shaheen in Hebron.

In addition to these incursions, dozens of settlers stormed the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque, under the strict protection of the Israeli occupation forces. Jerusalemites continue to call for support in protecting the mosque, which has been the site of daily incursions.

Meanwhile, Itamar Ben Gvir, the so-called Minister of National Security in the Israeli government, has issued new instructions aimed at facilitating trigger pulls among settlers, including preventing the confiscation of weapons and investigating those who shoot at Palestinians. Critics worry that these facilities will lead to a phenomenon of shooting in cases where it is not justified.
