Israeli occupation forces conducted extensive military operations across the occupied West Bank on Monday, storming towns, villages, and refugee camps while carrying out home searches, interrogations, and mass arrests. The operations included a critical medical obstruction incident in Qaryut, where soldiers blocked an ambulance and detained its medical team, causing a pregnant woman to lose her fetus after life-support equipment was disabled.
The invasions spanned multiple districts, with particular intensity in Hebron, where forces raided Beit Ummar, Ethna, Doura, and Yatta, detaining several residents including journalist Ehab Al-Alami. Soldiers installed roadblocks at entrances to Hebron city and closed main roads with concrete barriers and earth mounds. In Tulkarem, forces continued a mass detention campaign for a second consecutive day, arresting 20 Palestinians including a woman. Additional operations in Aqraba near Nablus resulted in one abduction, while clashes in Jenin sparked a fire after forces fired live ammunition and gas bombs. In Qalandia refugee camp north of Jerusalem, soldiers occupied the technical training institute and detained staff, injuring two Palestinians including a child.
