Israeli occupation forces (IOF) launched a series of wide-ranging raids across the West Bank during the night, resulting in numerous arrests and clashes with local residents.
Early Friday morning, occupation forces targeted the village of Al-Mazra’a Al-Gharbiya, situated north of Ramallah. In Qalqilya, the IOF detained the family of Mahmoud Dhiab in an apparent attempt to pressure him into surrendering, subsequently arresting another family member, Aboud Dhiab, during a home raid.

The situation intensified in Jenin, when IOF raided Jabal Abu Dhahir area, surrounded the Dar Al-Ata neighborhood, and arrested two young men, Hamada Al-Zaydan and Youssef Al-Shami, amid heavy occupation military deployment.

Clashes also broke out in the town of Huwara, south of Nablus, alongside raids in several parts of the governorate, including Beit Iba, the eastern area, and Balata refugee camp, where young man Ahmad Masha was arrested after a house raid.
The raids also reached the town of Zeita, north of Tulkarem, while settler bulldozers continued leveling and expanding a recently established outpost east of Salem town in Nablus, as part of ongoing settlement expansion in the area.
