Israeli forces detained a Palestinian resident at a military checkpoint east of Bethlehem on Saturday, according to Wafa, the official Palestinian news agency. The detainee was identified as Karim Asakreh.
Israeli settlers vandalized a home belonging to the Suwais family and felled trees on the property in the Khalayel al-Louz area southeast of Bethlehem, Wafa reported. The Israeli military meanwhile raided the towns of Nazla al-Sharqiya and Qaffin, north of Tulkarm, at dawn, the agency said.
Israeli forces entered Qalandiya refugee camp north of Jerusalem on Friday evening, opening fire and throwing stun grenades, according to Wafa. The military also sealed off the village of Al-Mughayyir on Ramallah's northeastern side, blocking residents from entering or leaving, while settlers engaged Palestinians on nearby farmland.
Israeli authorities seized 7,498 dunams in Qabatiya, south of Jenin, under what Wafa described as an "urgent" military order to build a road and military tower. The seizure was reported by the Wall and Settlement Resistance Commission, a Palestinian organization that monitors Israeli construction in the occupied territory.
