Israeli Military Raids Continue Across the West Bank
The Israeli military raids and settler violence across the occupied West Bank continued overnight and into Sunday, with reports of live ammunition, stun grenades, and tear gas being used against residents. The raids, which have been ongoing for several days, have resulted in the detention of five Palestinians after their homes were raided in Zeita and Seida. Meanwhile, in Tubas, Palestine Red Crescent Society (PRCS) crews reported that their teams treated 11 people, including four children, who suffered from tear gas inhalation during an Israeli raid on the city.
In the nearby town of Tammun, southeast of Tubas, settlers assaulted a 15-year-old Palestinian boy. PRCS said its crews treated the boy after he was severely beaten. On Sunday morning, Israeli forces sealed off the only remaining entrance to al-Mughayyir village, northeast of Ramallah, barring residents from entering or leaving. Local sources reported that commuters were harassed and interrogated by Israeli soldiers, who fired tear gas at vehicles attempting to enter or leave the village.
In Nablus, Israeli soldiers arrested a Palestinian and seized two vehicles after storming the towns and villages of Beita, Tal and Beit Dajan. East of Bethlehem, in the village of al-Maniya, Israeli settlers uprooted olive and grape plantations from Palestinian lands. Meanwhile, the Israeli settler siege of the village of Qusra, south of Nablus, has run into its 15th consecutive day. Wafa reported that settlers continued to surround three homes in the Ras al-Ain area of the village, while Israeli soldiers barred residents from entering or leaving the area. The three besieged families are running low on water, as the settlers have blocked the roads, preventing water deliveries.
