The raid comes amid a surge of Israeli operations across the West Bank, which local media says have killed more than 1,000 people and led to thousands of arrests since October 7, 2023.
A day earlier, Israeli forces also entered Ramallah, leaving at least 58 wounded in an assault on the Palestinian Authority’s administrative hub.
