As the Israeli occupation forces continue their wide-scale invasion of the northern West Bank, the Palestinian Resistance remains steadfast in confronting the aggression. Day 3 of the invasion saw intense clashes between the Resistance and the IOF, with heavy losses reported among the Israeli ranks.
The city of Jenin and Nablus were particularly targeted during the early hours of Friday, with the Palestinian Resistance successfully repelling the IOF in al-Damj, Jenin. The Resistance forces’ determination forced the Israeli occupation forces to call for reinforcements as the battle raged on.

Further attacks on Palestinian homes and a mosque in al-Damj, along with an arrest campaign targeting community members, intensified the chaos and fear in the region. As a result, a curfew was imposed in Jenin’s Old Town and the village of Sibat, further restricting the movement of the Palestinian population.
