Jenin and Ramallah raids
Israeli forces wounded a Palestinian by gunfire in the town of Jaba, south of Jenin, and the Palestinian Red Crescent Society said a 27-year-old Palestinian was wounded by live fire. Israeli forces raided the home of Palestinian Aysar Saleh Hamamreh in Jaba, vandalized its contents, damaged solar panels and stole property estimated at around 200,000 shekels. Israeli forces also stormed a wedding hall in Al-Mughayyir, northeast of Ramallah, fired tear gas toward around 150 guests, and detained four Palestinians from inside the hall including groom Hassan Abu Alia.
Wafa said soldiers assaulted the four detainees before releasing them several hours later, while Anadolu Ajansı said the raids included firing live ammunition and tear gas. Anadolu Ajansı linked the intensified attacks to Israel's war on the Gaza Strip in October 2023, and it said Palestinians warned such practices are paving the way for Israel's formal annexation of the West Bank.
Wedding raid and other attacks
Israeli forces and settlers carried out attacks across the occupied West Bank on Friday, including firing live ammunition and tear gas in Jaba and shooting a young Palestinian man in the thigh. Israeli forces raided a wedding hall in the village of al-Mughayyir, fired tear gas at around 150 guests, and detained four people including the groom. Troops stormed the home of Palestinian man Hamed Abu Naim, seized keys and forced the family out, while residents described Israeli troops entering the town to protect Israeli settlers who had chased children near its entrance.
In Beit Ummar, north of Hebron, Israeli forces fired tear gas at residents and their homes, and the report said several Palestinians were treated for tear gas inhalation. Osama Makhamra told Wafa that settlers besieged the home of Yousef Shannaran for the 40th consecutive day, with the settlers putting back up a tent next to the house that Israeli forces had previously removed.
Hebron siege for 40 days
Israeli colonists besieged a Palestinian’s home south of the Yatta city in the Hebron governorate for the 40th consecutive day, and media activist Osama Makhamra described the tent being rebuilt after Israeli occupation forces removed it. The colonists prevented the family from entering or leaving except through coordination with occupation forces stationed nearby, while the colonists hurled stones, poisoned the family’s water well, and smashed windows and doors. The family appealed to human rights and humanitarian organizations to help lift the siege and put an end to colonists' attacks, as WAFA reported from Hebron on November 13, 2026.
IMEMC News described a separate pattern of raids and abductions across the occupied West Bank on Thursday, including Israeli forces abducting six Palestinians in Aqqaba north of Tubas and identifying five brothers and a sixth man. IMEMC News also reported that in Tulkarem Israeli forces abducted three former political prisoners at dawn, naming Baha’ Shadid, Nidal Abu Hilal and Sa’ad Ahmad Mousa Qassem.
