Palestinians were injured by Israeli occupation forces’ bullets in the West Bank, where raids and arrest campaigns continued from Wednesday evening until Thursday dawn, and included several cities and towns, including Nablus and Qalqilya.
Palestinian media broadcast scenes of the occupation forces storming the city of Qalqilya, and the town of Kafr Qaddum, located east of it, was stormed and a number of homes were raided.
The Palestinian Information Center said, quoting local sources, that the occupation forces closed the entrance to Kafr Qaddum and informed the residents of the decision to ban a curfew inside the town until eight o’clock on Thursday evening, considering it a closed military zone.

The occupation forces stormed the Nablus Municipal Fire Department building and removed the workers from it. They also raided the headquarters of the Palestinian Trade Unions, detained those inside, abused them, and conducted field investigations with them.
Two Palestinians were also injured by bullets from the occupation forces, and others suffered from gas suffocation, on Wednesday evening, as a result of gunfire and tear gas bombs in the towns of Qalandiya and Al-Ram, north of occupied Jerusalem.
The Palestinian Red Crescent Society said in two separate statements that its crews transported to the hospital a young man injured by live bullets in the foot in the Qalandiya area, and another person injured by live bullets in the thigh in the Al-Ram area.
The occupation forces and settlers continue to escalate their attacks on Palestinian cities and towns as part of an accelerated plan to strengthen the occupation of the West Bank.
