Nablus: Israeli occupation forces arrested 14 Palestinians on Monday during a wide-ranging raid and detention campaign across several areas of the occupied West Bank, according to the Palestinian Prisoners Club. The organisation said clashes erupted in some locations during the raids, resulting in injuries and cases of suffocation. The campaign involved house searches, the ransacking of property and the temporary detention of residents, some of whom were subjected to field interrogations that lasted for several hours.
According to Jordan News Agency, illegal Israeli settlers carried out attacks against Palestinians and set fire to agricultural land in the Masoudiya area, northwest of Nablus in the northern occupied West Bank. The Nablus Governorate reported that a group of armed settlers attacked the area, throwing stones at residents and injuring one person in the hand. The settlers also attempted to break into a home.
The governorate added that settlers set fire to wheat fields, burning large tracts of agricultural land and causing significant crop damage. In a separate incident, illegal Israeli settlers attacked Palestinian homes in the town of Beit Ummar, north of Hebron, by throwing stones at residents' properties.
The illegal settlers spray-painted racist slogans on a mosque, set fire to a vehicle and attempted to burn a mosque in the village of Burqa, east of occupied Ramallah. A local village council said settlers forced open the mosque's doors and set fire to its entrance in an apparent attempt to burn down the building. Residents managed to extinguish the flames before they spread inside the mosque, while the attackers fled the area.
