Israeli occupation forces sealed the two main entrances to the village of Al-Mughayir, northeast of Ramallah, on Saturday morning. Earlier, at dawn, forces stormed the refugee camps of Balata, Askari, and Ein in Nablus, raiding homes and detaining residents, including women, for field interrogation.

Local sources reported that the closure of Al-Mughayir's entrances prevented residents from entering or leaving the village. This action followed a raid on a wedding celebration in the village the previous day, during which four individuals, including the groom, were arrested from inside the wedding hall.

Villages and towns northeast of Ramallah have been subjected to continuous incursions by occupation forces, alongside ongoing attacks by settlers on residents and their property.

In Nablus, local sources indicated that occupation forces entered the Ein refugee camp, west of the city, and searched several homes. They also raided the Balata and Askari camps, east of the city, searching residences and detaining several young men and women for field interrogation. The sources added that occupation forces entered the Balata al-Balad area amidst a widespread military presence, using one of the homes as a center for field investigations.
