The Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF) said it had concluded a "48-hour extended operation" in the West Bank cities of Tulkarm, Nur Shams, Tubas, and Al-Far'a.

The IOF claimed it eliminated a military cell in an airstrike, which included Mohammad Abu Atiya.

The IOF said it discovered a vehicle rigged with explosives and a remote detonation system in Tubas, as well as seizing weapons, including sniper rifles and other equipment.

Additionally, they claimed to have found "four bomb-making labs, communication devices, cameras, and a weapons manufacturing lathe."

It also reported discovering "an underground opening with no exit near a hospital inside the Tulkarm refugee camp."
