The Israeli occupation forces (IOF) detained 12 Palestinians in a large-scale raid campaign in the West Bank at dawn Thursday.

In Nablus two brothers were detained after Israeli forces violently stormed Asira al-Shamaliah town.

The Israeli troops reportedly came under fire during the raid with no casualties reported.

In Tubas a young man was also arrested after being violently attacked and beaten at the hands of Israeli occupation soldiers.

At least four locals were rounded up in Salfit while three more arrests were carried out in Al-Sila Al-Harithiya.

Another young man was detained in Tulkarem and two others in Bethlehem.

Meanwhile violent clashes broke out in Duheisheh refugee camp in Bethlehem after being stormed by the IOF.

A young man was shot and injured during the clashes while two others were detained.

The IOF often carries out detention raids against Palestinians in the West Bank and Occupied Jerusalem claiming to arrest wanted Palestinians.

Israel currently holds 4650 Palestinians including 34 women 160 children and 500 administrative detainees in its jails.
