In the northern West Bank city of Jenin, the Palestinian Red Crescent Society reported that its medical crews treated a 17-year-old who suffered a critical gunshot wound to the chest from live ammunition. The injury occurred during an Israeli military raid on the village of Anza, south of Jenin. The Red Crescent described the child’s condition as critical, stating he was initially taken to an emergency center in the nearby town of Ajja before being transferred to a Jenin hospital for advanced treatment.

Local sources detailed the raid on Anza, noting that the Israeli occupation army stormed the village with multiple military vehicles, accompanied by the deployment of snipers in the streets. This led to clashes during which occupation soldiers reportedly fired live bullets and stun grenades at residents.
In related incidents within the Jenin governorate, occupation forces arrested three young men. Two were detained from their workplaces in the town of Barta’a, north of Jenin, while the third was arrested from his workplace in the town of Al-Zababdeh, southeast of the city.

Further raids were conducted in the Jenin area, including the village of Deir Abu Da’if, east of the city, where military vehicles patrolled the streets. The town of Qabatiya, south of Jenin, also saw a raid during which demolition orders were delivered. These orders reportedly targeted the homes of martyrs, including the residence of martyr Wael Lahlooh. Occupation forces continued to deploy foot soldiers in the streets as part of the ongoing large-scale assault on Jenin city and its refugee camp, which has been active since January 21.
In the central West Bank governorate of Ramallah and Al-Bireh, occupation forces raided the village of Kafr Malik, northeast of Ramallah. During the raid, they reportedly stormed the village cemetery and removed Palestinian flags that were displayed there, an act that sparked widespread public anger. Israeli forces also entered the neighborhoods of Sath Marhaba, Al-Jinan, and Al-Shurfa, deploying military vehicles through the streets, though no specific raids or arrests were reported in these locations.
In parallel with the genocide in Gaza, the occupation army and settlers have intensified their attacks in the West Bank, leading to the killing of at least 989 Palestinians, the injury of around 7,000 others, and the arrest of more than 18,000 people.
