Israeli forces have also arrested a man from the town of Kafr Laqif, east of Qalqilya city.

Raids have also been reported in different locations across the occupied West Bank, including the city of Nablus, the town of Surif and the Qayzoun neighbourhood in Hebron, and the town of Habla, southeast of Qalqilya.
