Palestinian sources reported on Monday morning that two Palestinians were killed in clashes near the town of Qabatiya in the northern West Bank.
According to the sources, Israeli occupation forces bombed an agricultural facility in which resistance fighters had taken cover in the town of Qabatiya, south of Jenin, leading to its complete destruction.
Al Jazeera confirmed the death of Yousef Al-Amer, a young man from Jenin refugee camp, who was shot and killed by Israeli forces near Qabatiya. His body was withheld by the military before the body of a second martyr was found in the same area.
Israel’s Channel 12 reported that the army killed a wanted Palestinian and arrested another near Qabatiya.
Activists shared footage showing armed clashes around the besieged building.
Arrests
Israeli occupation forces also arrested three Palestinians, including an injured teenager, after raiding and searching their homes south of Bethlehem.
Seven other Palestinians were arrested in Hebron after their homes were stormed, searched, and vandalized.
Israeli forces additionally seized two Palestinian-owned vehicles in Al-Arroub refugee camp, north of Hebron.
Troops also raided the city of Ramallah and several surrounding towns and villages, launching a campaign of home invasions and arrests.
A Palestinian report published Sunday revealed that Israel has detained around 18,500 Palestinians in the occupied West Bank since the beginning of its war of extermination in Gaza on October 7, 2023.
The West Bank continues to witness intense assaults by Israeli forces and settlers amid an ongoing military operation that has lasted for more than seven months in northern West Bank refugee camps.
Alongside the war in Gaza, the Israeli military and settlers have escalated their attacks in the West Bank, including East Jerusalem, resulting in the death of at least 1,012 Palestinians, the injury of approximately 7,000, and the arrest of more than 18,500, according to official Palestinian data.
