In Bethlehem Governorate, occupation forces arrested three Palestinian citizens today, Sunday, after raiding and searching their homes, according to the Palestinian News Agency (WAFA).
In Jenin, a Palestinian man sustained injuries and bruises after being assaulted by Israeli occupation soldiers near the bypass road between Zababdeh and the Jalameh crossing. He was taken to hospital, according to the Red Crescent Society.
On Saturday evening, the occupation forces also blew up a house in Jenin camp, as part of an ongoing demolition campaign that has so far affected more than 600 homes since last January. Meanwhile, an Israeli plan to demolish approximately 95 homes, announced on June 9, continues.
The occupation continues its aggression on the city and camp of Jenin for the 160th consecutive day, resulting in the martyrdom of 40 Palestinians and the arrest of dozens, amid widespread destruction of infrastructure and homes.
In Masafer Yatta, south of Hebron, Israeli forces arrested a Palestinian citizen from the village of Susiya and severely beat a number of citizens, including women and children, in the village of Khallet al-Dabaa. Several were injured, including an 85-year-old man who was taken to the hospital after losing consciousness as a result of the attack, according to WAFA.
In the same context, the Israeli occupation forces raided towns and camps in the governorates of Tulkarm, Qalqilya, Tubas, Ramallah, and Hebron, searching Palestinian homes, stopping vehicles, and detaining their passengers for extended periods. This comes amid a tight siege imposed on the Tulkarm and Nur Shams camps, as part of an Israeli plan to demolish 106 buildings.
On Saturday evening, Israeli occupation forces stormed the Old City of Hebron, accompanied by dozens of settlers. They forced Palestinian shopkeepers to close their stores and restricted residents' movement amidst profanity and repeated assaults, in clear violation of the 1997 Hebron Agreement.
In Ramallah, settlers set fire to agricultural land in the town of Yabrud, sparking a large fire that engulfed areas planted with olive trees. Palestinian residents attempted to obstruct efforts to extinguish the blaze.
In Nablus, settlers attacked the homes of citizens in the village of Tal, southwest of the city, under the protection of the occupation army. This led to clashes in which soldiers used live ammunition and tear gas.
These attacks are part of an organized campaign by settlers and occupation forces aimed at forcibly displacing residents and expanding settlements. The Commission Against the Wall and Settlements documented 415 settler attacks in May alone, including armed attacks, land leveling, uprooting trees, and the construction of settlement outposts.
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 986 Palestinians and the injury of approximately 7,000 others, according to Palestinian data.
Since October 7, 2023, Israel, with American support, has been committing genocide in Gaza, including killing, starvation, destruction, and displacement, ignoring international calls and orders from the International Court of Justice to halt it.
The genocide left more than 189,000 Palestinians dead or wounded, most of them children and women, and more than 11,000 missing. Hundreds of thousands were displaced, and a famine claimed the lives of many, including children.
