Wave of operational activity in Judea and Samaria

Over the last 24 hours, Palestinian media outlets reported a widespread wave of raids, arrests, and military activity in various locations in Judea and Samaria. According to شبكة قدس الإخبارية, special IDF forces infiltrated the town of Qabatiya south of Jenin, where clashes with local residents were documented during the night.

In the Nablus sector, the entry of military forces into several locations was reported, including the Rafidia neighborhood, the Al-Ain refugee camp, and the area of the Asira ash-Shamaliya junction. According to reports in نابلس بوست, the forces arrested several young men during the operation. In one instance, it was noted that occupation forces delayed an ambulance at the Beit Furik checkpoint located east of Nablus.

At the same time, intensive activity was reported in the Jerusalem area. شبكة قدس الإخبارية noted that in the town of Hizma, northeast of Jerusalem, forces carried out a widespread wave of arrests of about 18 young men, while raiding homes and conducting field interrogations.

The operational activity, which included raids on homes and the use of military assets in the heart of the cities, was described by وكالة شهاب and local media sources as a "campaign of arrests and a series of raids." As of the latest update, the forces began withdrawing from some of the activity hubs in Nablus toward the Huwara checkpoint.
