The forces apprehended wanted individuals, interrogated suspects, and confiscated weapons and equipment used for terrorist activities, including materials for bomb-making. In the city of Nablus, forces carried out nighttime arrest operations in the Balata and Kasbah neighborhoods. During these operations, six terrorists were arrested, including a Hamas operative involved in terrorist activities.
