Israeli Raid on Nablus Razes Memorials, Detains Journalist
Troops entered from several directions with military vehicles and a bulldozer, then fanned out across multiple neighborhoods, sources told media. The army imposed a curfew in several parts of the city as the operation unfolded.
The bulldozer razed memorials to Palestinians killed in the Al-Dawar and Ras al-Ain areas, the sources said.
Several Palestinians were taken into custody, among them journalist Amir Istitiyeh, according to the sources.
Soldiers also converted Karman School on Kashika Street into a makeshift field interrogation center, where detainees were held and questioned. Local sources added that some of those detained were beaten.
Settler attack near Ramallah
Separately on Wednesday, Israeli occupiers assaulted Palestinian homes in the village of Deir Nizam, northwest of Ramallah, local sources said. They told media that the attackers damaged property, torched a vehicle and spray-painted racist slogans in Hebrew on the walls of several houses.
Escalating violence
The incidents come as violence by Israeli occupiers against Palestinians and their property intensifies across the occupied West Bank, including East Jerusalem. Since October 2023, occupiers have carried out more than 14,742 attacks in the territory, killing 66 Palestinians, according to the Palestinian Colonization and Wall Resistance Commission.
