Palestinians were injured and arrested during Israeli raids across the West Bank, according to Al Jazeera. The attacks came amid a broader military offensive that has forced more than 3,300 residents to abandon their homes in the city of Hebron.

The raids, carried out by the Israeli Defence Forces, targeted a number of villages and neighbourhoods in the West Bank. While the exact number of injuries was not disclosed, local sources report several people were taken to hospitals for treatment.

In Hebron, the displacement has reached a new high, with thousands of families leaving their homes as the offensive continues. The city, which lies in the southern part of the West Bank, has long been a flashpoint for Israeli‑Palestinian tensions.

Palestinian officials say the raids are part of a broader strategy to crack down on resistance and secure key areas. They also warn that the continued military pressure is exacerbating an already dire humanitarian situation in the region.

The Israeli government has not released further details on the number of arrests or the specific locations of the raids, but it maintains that the operations are aimed at maintaining security in the West Bank.
