According to a report by the WAFA news agency on Tuesday, Israeli forces conducted early morning operations in Nablus city and the adjacent Balata and al-Ain refugee camps, resulting in the detention of eight Palestinians.
According to the report, occupying forces conducted incursions into the cities of al-Bireh and Dura, in addition to the towns of Birzeit, Beit Rima, Deir Ghasana, Beitunia, and Idhna. During these operations, they reportedly searched and ransacked the homes of Palestinian residents.
