One citizen was reportedly injured in the leg when Israeli soldiers fired live ammunition at citizens in the an-Naqqar neighborhood of Qalqilya.
The IOF also stormed different neighborhoods of Qalqilya City and raided multiple homes.
In Masafer Yatta, south of al-Khalil, Israeli forces stormed Khirbet al-Majaz for the second time within hours, raided the home of Mahmoud Abu Aram, and forced his family to leave before using it as a military post.
The occupation forces also raided al-Fawwar refugee camp south of al-Khalil, storming several homes and firing stun grenades in its streets.

An unknown number of young men were also taken prisoner during IOF raids in al-Mughayir village northeast of Ramallah, as well as in Kafr Aqab town and the al-Kassarat neighborhood north of Jerusalem.
The IOF also kidnaped more citizens from other areas of the West Bank, including two teenagers from their homes in Anabta town, east of Tulkarem, and a young man from his home in Nablus City.

IOF Razes House of Martyr Imran al-Attrash in al-Khalil
IOF demolished today the home of martyr Imran al-Attrash in al-Khalil City, who had carried out a resistance operation two months ago near the illegal settlement bloc of Gush Etzion in the southern West Bank.

Local sources said that a large number of Israeli occupation troops stormed the Khilat Nafisa area south of al-Khalil City at dawn on Thursday, broke into al-Attrash’s home, and forcibly evacuated his family before beginning the demolition.
The IOF also imposed a tight military cordon on the area and raided several nearby houses.
Israeli soldiers reportedly forced dozens of families living near the martyr’s house to leave their homes, amid a heavy deployment of military patrol vehicles and bulldozers.
Last December, the Israeli occupation army had notified the family of martyr Imran al-Attrash of its intent to demolish their home.
Attrash was martyred on November 18, 2025, along with his friend Walid Sabarneh, when Israeli soldiers opened fire on them after they carried out a car-ramming attack near the Gush Etzion settlement bloc in response to the ongoing Israeli crimes against the Palestinian people.
