Tensions continue to escalate in the occupied West Bank as Israeli occupation forces stormed the town of Beita for the third day in a row. The pre-dawn raid saw dozens of homes searched and thoroughly scrutinized by the occupation forces.

Confrontations with Palestinian youth ensued, and the occupation forces fired gas bombs intensely during the clashes.

For hours, the occupation forces remained on the scene, conducting their search in an area that has witnessed months of tensions due to Israeli settler encroachment on Palestinian lands.

Notably, the occupation forces claim that their raids on the town of Beita were intended to locate the individual responsible for the recent attack on two Israeli settlers in Huwara.

Meanwhile, the Zionist occupation forces were ordered to be on alert during the Jewish holidays amid Israeli fears of Palestinian attacks.
