The Palestinian news agency Wafa has reported on numerous raids by Israeli troops and military vehicles on communities, villages, towns and cities across the occupied West Bank following the killing earlier of three young people in Jenin.
A crowd of thousands formed a funeral march for the three Palestinian youths, aged 17 to 24, who were killed by Israeli forces on Thursday.
Areas raided overnight and into early Friday morning, include:
- The Abu Sneina neighbourhood in Hebron City
- Israeli snipers took up positions in the al-Ein refugee camp in Nablus while a house in the camp was raided and buildings searched on the camp’s outskirts, Wafa reports. Local residents engaged in clashes with the Israeli military to prevent the incursion.
- A dawn raid was carried out on the towns of Silat, al-Dhahr and al-Fandaqumiya, located to the south of Jenin, where Palestinian homes were searched by troops accompanied by police dogs.
- Israeli soldiers fired stun grenades and deployed a noxious gas during confrontations with local Palestinians, who rallied to resist a raid on Husan village, west of Bethlehem.
- Troops also stormed the Khallet al-Farra village community south of Hebron, where they searched and ransacked homes before withdrawing.
