The Israeli occupation forces (IOF) launched a large-scale raid and arrest campaign across the West Bank, which led to the outbreak of violent clashes in several areas at dawn Friday.

In Jenin, the IOF stormed Ya’bad town and raided a number of local homes, where snipers were deployed on the roofs of a number of them.

At least two young men were detained during the raids amid heavy fire of live bullets, sound and tear gas bombs.

Similar raids were carried out in Shuhada village, south of Jenin, where military bulldozers destroyed the water lines at the village.

In Nablus, the IOF stormed Tal village amid heavy gunfire, which led to clashes.

In occupied Jerusalem, clashes erupted in the Shuafat camp after being violently raised by Israeli police forces amid heavy use of live bullets, sound and tear gas bombs. No injuries or arrests were reported.

Meanwhile, the IOF withdrew from Qabatiya town after a one-day aggression that left seven people killed and 12 injured.
