The Palestinian News Agency (WAFA) reported that special forces from the occupation army severely beat a Palestinian young man in his home in the Shuafat camp, north of occupied Jerusalem, causing him injuries and bruises. Meanwhile, an occupation army force raided the towns of Anata and Al-Eizariya, northeast of Jerusalem.
Security sources told WAFA that Israeli occupation forces arrested a Palestinian from Karkafeh Street in Bethlehem, and another from the town of Tuqu', southeast of the city.
Israeli occupation forces raided the village of Al-Mazra'a al-Gharbiya, northwest of Ramallah, at dawn on Wednesday, arresting three Palestinians, including two children, after raiding their homes and ransacking their contents.
Settler incursions
Meanwhile, dozens of settlers stormed Al-Aqsa Mosque in occupied Jerusalem, conducting provocative tours of its courtyards and performing Talmudic rituals under the protection of occupation forces, according to eyewitnesses.
Witnesses added that the occupation police transformed the Old City of occupied Jerusalem into a military barracks. Hundreds of police officers were deployed at close quarters, particularly at the gates of Al-Aqsa Mosque, and tightened their military measures at the gates of the Old City and Al-Aqsa Mosque, imposing restrictions on the entry of Palestinian worshippers.
In Ramallah, WAFA reported that settlers infiltrated the village of Rammun, east of the city, at dawn, burning two vehicles and the wall of a house, and spray-painting racist slogans on Palestinian homes.
Yesterday, Tuesday, settlers attacked Palestinian homes in Qaryut, south of Nablus, torching and destroying seven vehicles, and burning crops in the village of Al-Mughayyir, northeast of Ramallah.
WAFA reported, citing official data, that settlers carried out 231 acts of vandalism and theft of Palestinian property in April, affecting vast areas of land.
In parallel with the annihilation of Gaza, the Israeli occupation army and settlers escalated their attacks in the West Bank, including East Jerusalem, resulting in the deaths of at least 970 Palestinians, the injury of approximately 7,000, and the arrest of more than 17,000, according to Palestinian data.
Since October 7, 2023, Israel, with full American support, has been waging a war of extermination in Gaza, leaving approximately 177,000 Palestinians dead or wounded, most of them children and women, more than 11,000 missing, and hundreds of thousands displaced.
