Hebron: On Tuesday evening, Israeli soldiers invaded Masafer Yatta, a village south of Hebron in the occupied West Bank, and abducted two Palestinian men while confiscating an excavator.
According to reports, the incident followed attacks by illegal Israeli settlers on local residents in the Al-Rahim area. The two men taken were identified as Mohammad Amer Al-Hreini (32) and Mohammad Suleiman Al-Hreini (37). Settlers also raided the home of another Palestinian, Khalil Al-Hreini.
Additionally, in the nearby town of Khallet Al-Matta, east of Yatta, Israeli forces seized an excavator belonging to Mohammed Nofal Al-Ghaafi.
Similar military actions occurred in other parts of the West Bank. Soldiers entered 'Aroura, near Ramallah, and Qaryout near Nablus, where they reportedly fired tear gas and stun grenades.
