Israeli forces and settlers raided several areas of the West Bank overnight and early Sunday, searching homes, damaging property, and sparking confrontations, Palestinian media reported.

Troops operated across Beita, Burqa, Asira Al-Qibliya, Urif, Awarta, Einabus, Beit Furik, Hawara, and Qusra in Nablus, where soldiers tampered with photographs of Palestinians killed by Israeli forces and removed a Palestinian flag. Settlers damaged greenhouses in Beit Furik and threw stones at vehicles near the Shilo settlement.

In Al-Khalil (Hebron), Palestinian media said the military closed the entrance to Farsh Al-Hawa and raided Idhna, while property was set ablaze by settlers in Wadi Al-Rakhim in Masafer Yatta. Searches were also reported near Jenin and in Qalqilya, where stun grenades and tear gas were fired, and residents of Jaba confronted settlers attempting to enter the town.

Operations extended to Jericho, Bethlehem, and other parts of Jenin. Near Ramallah, settlers targeted a home in Al-Taybeh and patrolled Abu Falah.
