Israeli army storms West Bank towns

The Israeli military launched a sweeping campaign of raids and abductions across cities and towns in the occupied West Bank, eyewitnesses report.

Operations targeted multiple areas, including Jenin, Nablus, Qalqilya in the north, and Bethlehem in the south.

Witnesses described intense clashes in Qabatiya, south of Jenin, where Israeli forces used live ammunition and tear gas against Palestinians. In response, Palestinian youths hurled stones at the advancing soldiers.

Critics have condemned these actions as part of Israel’s systematic crackdown on Palestinians, intensifying the suffering in the already embattled West Bank.
