West Bank: Israeli raids and settler attacks escalate across multiple cities
Tensions and violence have escalated across the West Bank, characterized by Israeli military raids, arrests, and settler confrontations. In the town of Qusra, south of Nablus, three homes in the Ras al-Ain area have been under siege for approximately two weeks. Local officials report that Israeli forces have seized one residence, converting it into a military outpost, while families inside the remaining besieged homes face critical shortages of food and medicine.
In other regions, Israeli forces conducted raids in Nablus, Tulkarm, and Hebron, resulting in multiple arrests. In the Northern Jordan Valley, clashes and attacks involving settlers and the military have left several Palestinians injured, including a group targeted while traveling in a vehicle near Ramallah. Additionally, Palestinian shepherds reported being prevented from accessing grazing lands in the Jordan Valley.
Movement throughout the territory remains heavily restricted due to the establishment of military checkpoints and road closures in Hebron, Bethlehem, and surrounding villages, causing significant disruption to local transit.
