Israeli forces conducted widespread raids across the West Bank and East Jerusalem on Wednesday, arresting numerous Palestinians, including former prisoners. Two Palestinians were injured by rubber bullets during the operations. The raids occurred alongside attacks by Israeli settlers targeting Palestinian homes, property destruction, and road closures.

In Tulkarm, special forces apprehended Nimer Ayman Saleh, a wanted individual from Ramallah residing in Dhanaiba suburb. Israeli troops also entered the town of Atil, north of Tulkarm.

In the Ramallah governorate, forces raided the town of Silwad and injured two Palestinians with rubber bullets near the village of Ras Karkar, where a gate had been erected to block a road. In Qalqilya, forces entered the city from the southern checkpoint, raided homes and a shop in the Daoud neighborhood, and arrested two released prisoners, Anas Malik Daoud and Mohammed Salameh, among others.

In the Nablus governorate, Israeli forces raided the village of Aurta, the refugee camp of Al-Ain, the Al-Ma'ajin neighborhood, and other areas. Local sources reported the arrest of Jihad Yousef Al-Qani in Kafr Qalil, Basel Salah and Rushdi Daghlis in Burqa, Sultan Al-Hallak from Al-Ain camp, and Wadih Abu Zant from Al-Ma'ajin neighborhood.

Settler violence accompanied the military operations. Settlers attacked a home in Al-Lubban Al-Sharqiya village, south of Nablus, and entered Dura city, south of Hebron, under Israeli military protection. Clashes erupted in Al-Arroub refugee camp, north of Hebron, where Israeli forces fired sound grenades. Settlers also vandalized Palestinian homes in Khirbet Aqawis in Masafer Yatta. In eastern Tubas, settlers blocked a road near Yarza settlement with stones and stole a tent.

Israeli forces also raided the village of Bartaa, southwest of Jenin, and entered the Shuafat refugee camp in East Jerusalem, raiding several homes. These events are occurring amid ongoing military incursions and arrests in the West Bank, coupled with escalating settler attacks on Palestinian communities and properties, leading to confrontations and restrictions on Palestinian movement.
