Palestinian children among those detained by Israel in West Bank raids

Settler violence escalates, with illegal outposts and frequent attacks reported across Ramallah, Hebron and Nablus.

Two Israeli raids in the West Bank have led to the detention of seven Palestinians, including two teenagers aged 16. The operations took place across multiple locations, including Asira Al Shamaliya, Nablus governorate, and Bethlehem governorate. In Asira Al Shamaliya, Israeli forces detained residents during home raids, with most being released afterward.

In Nablus governorate, four Palestinians were detained in Orif, Einabus, and Burqa villages. Additionally, two 16-year-olds were detained in Wadi Fukin and Tammun. The Israeli military has intensified its operations since the beginning of the Gaza war, resulting in increased violence and restrictions on movement in the West Bank.
