According to the Palestinian News Agency (WAFA), the raids targeted areas in Ramallah, Bethlehem, and Tulkarm, with three Palestinians arrested in Bethlehem, three others in Tulkarm, and two boys and a young man from Ramallah.

The latest arrests are part of the ongoing Israeli assault on the West Bank, which has escalated in recent months with increased raids, detentions, and indiscriminate shooting in various Palestinian cities and towns.
Just a few days ago, Israeli occupation forces stormed neighborhoods in the Tulkarm refugee camp, forcing residents to evacuate their homes. This is the 49th consecutive day of the Israeli military’s relentless offensive on the city and its two camps.
Footage shared by activists on social media has documented the extensive damage caused to homes in the Jenin refugee camp due to the continued attacks by the occupation forces.
Dozens of homes have been either razed to the ground or burned by Israeli occupation forces during their ongoing offensive in Jenin refugee camp, which has been going on for 56 days. Almost the entire population of the camp have been displaced.
