Settlers attacked Palestinian vehicles near the entrance to the town of Birzeit, north of Ramallah, in an assault targeting passing cars. In Qalqilya, Israeli forces arrested 12 Palestinians after raiding the city from its eastern entrance, searching homes and damaging their contents before withdrawing after approximately two hours. Israeli forces also raided the village of Hajja, forcing the family of Rabie Yasser Rabie to evacuate their home in the eastern quarter, reportedly to use it as a military outpost. In the Ramallah and al-Bireh Governorate, forces raided dozens of homes in the village of al-Mughayyir, northeast of Ramallah, with no arrests reported. In the town of al-Ram, north of Jerusalem, a military checkpoint was established at the entrance, coinciding with the closure of entrances to the town of Hizma, northeast of Jerusalem, restricting the movement of citizens and vehicles.

Arrests were made in Tulkarm, including journalist and released prisoner Hamza Salameh and his brothers Momen and Mustafa, along with Mohammed Salem Al-Qass. In Tubas, a young man identified as Abdullah Yahya Abdul-Razeq was arrested, while forces raided the town of Tamun, south of the city, and searched homes. In the Nablus Governorate, forces entered the town of Beta to prepare for the demolition of two homes belonging to detainees Ibrahim Abdul-Karim Daoud and Zakaria Mohammed Daoud, forcing residents in the western part of the town to evacuate the area. The village of Burin has been under occupation for the second consecutive day, with homes raided and some converted into military outposts. In the village of Yasid, north of Nablus, a citizen sustained fractures from a beating. These developments encompass attacks on Palestinian vehicles and military operations involving arrests, home searches, and the evacuation of some homes for military use.
