Israeli raids continue in occupied West Bank
The Wafa news agency reports that Israeli forces have stormed Tulkarem and Balata in the West Bank.
In Tulkarem, which recently witnessed an intense 10-day Israeli military operation, one of the largest seen in decades, Israeli soldiers, including two military bulldozers, are stationed around the Al-Alimi Roundabout in the city, Wafa says.
The bulldozers have begun destroying infrastructure in the area, common features of Israeli raids in the West Bank.
Military bulldozers were also deployed in the Israeli raid on Balata, during which, Wafa says, clashes broke out between local Palestinians and Israeli soldiers.
