Bethlehem, Hebron, Nablus, and Ramallah have been reported as incidents in the Israeli army’s operations and arrests throughout the occupied West Bank.
A young man and a child were among the numerous Palestinians who were detained in the Yabad town on Sunday, according to the Wafa news agency.
A 37-year-old man was detained in Beit Fajjar, according to reports, and a 25-year-old man was detained in Nilin, near Ramallah, in addition to being in Israeli custody.
Just days after Israel launched a protracted raid in the Ramallah and el-Bireh governorates, which left at least 58 people injured, several raids were carried out in those areas.
Kafr Malek, Nilin, and Deir Qaddis were also visited by Israeli soldiers, but they did not make any arrests.
As evidenced by online videos that Al Jazeera verified, intense and persistent gunfire erupted in other locations in the West Bank south of Hebron.
According to Wafa, five Palestinians were shot by Israelis, including a girl, and taken to a hospital for treatment.
No injuries were reported from the Israeli airstrikes in the towns of Sebastia and Sarra, which are both said to have been shot by Israeli soldiers.
In Masafer Yatta, a Palestinian man and his wife were injured in Khallet al-Daba, a settler attack that occurred in the village.
In Kisan, a village close to Bethlehem, Israeli settlers also attacked Palestinian homes.
Despite being protected by the Israeli army, the settlers reportedly broke into Palestinian homes and looted them.
More than 1, 000 Israeli settler attacks in the occupied West Bank, according to the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), were recorded in the first eight months of the year and resulted in injuries, property damage, or both. Israeli soldiers support and execute settlers on Palestinian land every day in secret.
Since October 2023, Israeli forces and settlers have killed at least 671 Palestinians in the area, including 129 children, according to OCHA.
The Palestinian Authority (PA) claimed that Israeli authorities had carried out unauthorised excavation and demolition operations at the Jerusalem compound’s Al-Aqsa Mosque compound in addition to the Israeli raids and the settler attacks.
According to a statement from the PA’s Jerusalem governorate, “These operations deliberately target Islamic antiquities dating back to the Umayyad period, which are living witnesses and unquestionable proof of Muslims’ legitimate claim to the site.”
