The Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF) announced that it targeted a site in the Faraa camp in Tubas, located in the northern Jordan Valley, claiming that it struck an armed group.

The Palestinian Ministry of Health reported that five individuals were martyred and two others were injured, one critically, and were transported to Tubas Turkish Government Hospital following an Israeli Occupation attack on a vehicle near Tubas.

According to a Roya correspondent, the martyrs in Tubas include Ahmad Fawaz Fayez Abu Dawwas, 24, Mohammad Awad Salem Abu Jumaa, 30, Qusay Majdi Abdullah Abdul Razzaq, 26, Mohammad Nazmi Abu Zaghah, 23, and Mohammad Zakaria Mohammad Al-Zubeidi, 21.

The IOF military spokesperson reported conducting three aerial strikes in Tubas targeting individuals who were allegedly a threat to the forces.

Notably, Mohammad Zakaria Al-Zubeidi was the son of Zakaria Al-Zubeidi, one of the prominent figures involved in the Freedom Tunnel escape from Gilboa prison.

The IOF also conducted raids in several West Bank towns amid ongoing assaults, targeted operations, and street clearances in refugee camps and cities. Sources indicated that a young man was injured by IOF fire during the raid on the Faraa camp.

Additionally, the IOF deployed military reinforcements to the Jenin camp and forced residents in the surrounding areas to evacuate, according to Palestinian sources.

Raids were also carried out in the town of Silwad northeast of Ramallah and a re-raid occurred in Kafr Dan west of Jenin. Further raids took place in Qalqilya, Hebron, and various other cities and towns across the West Bank.
