The Palestinian resistance has carried out 19 operations against Israeli forces in just 48 hours at the beginning of this week across the West Bank. These actions included 12 field confrontations, five clashes in which residents repelled settler attacks, and two demonstrations held in Al-Bireh and Nablus.
These actions by the resistance take place amid relentless Israeli military raids, road blocks, arbitrary arrests, and escalating settler attacks. In a wide-scale detention campaign, Israeli forces arrested numerous Palestinians—including a 72-year-old journalist. Israeli forces also imposed harsh restrictions on movement, with road closures and military checkpoints.
The resistance has not only confronted Israeli soldiers but also repelled settler assaults, injuring several settlers in self-defense. During the month of June, the Palestinian Information Center documented a total of 248 acts of resistance in the West Bank and occupied Jerusalem, resulting in 26 casualties to Israeli forces.
