Hebron: Israeli occupation forces arrested 17 Palestinians during raids on several areas in the West Bank on Monday. The arrests took place in Hebron, Bethlehem, Jalazone camp north of Ramallah, and Qalqilya.

According to Qatar News Agency, the arrests included 11 people from Hebron, two from Bethlehem, two from the Jalazone camp north of Ramallah, and two from Qalqilya. The Palestinian news agency (WAFA) reported these incidents, highlighting the widespread impact across multiple regions.

In the same context, local sources reported that the occupation forces stormed Qalqilya from its southern entrance and spread across several neighborhoods. This tactical maneuver contributed to the successful arrest operations within the area.

Arrest operations have increased since the beginning of the genocide campaign against the Gaza Strip in October 2023. These actions are part of a collective punishment policy against Palestinians in the West Bank, further intensifying the already tense situation in the region.
