Gaza: Israeli forces Wednesday infiltrated Gaza borders and razed land to the north of the Gaza Strip, said sources.
Four Israeli military patrols stationed along the borderline area to the east of the Strip infiltrated the borders between the besieged Gaza Strip and Israel and razed land situated to the east of Beit Hanoun area, north of the Strip.
Meanwhile, Israeli occupation forces stormed the neighborhoods of Balata camp near (Nablus), north of the occupied West Bank and raided homes, which led to violent clashes between dozens of Palestinian youths and Israeli forces that raided the neighborhood (Ka'abneh) in the camp.
Israeli forces also detained nine Palestinians, including a minor, during overnight raids across a number of West Bank districts, said Palestine Prisoner's Society in a press statement on Wednesday.
Forces detained two Palestinians, including a 14-year-old minor, after storming and ransacking their family homes in the Bethlehem town of Nahhalin in the southern West Bank.
In the central West Bank, forces raided the Ramallah town of Beit Rima, detaining a Palestinian.
Meanwhile, two Palestinians were detained during an overnight raid into the Tulkarem refugee camp of Nour Shams in the northern West Bank.
Elsewhere in the northern West Bank, Israeli troops raided the Nablus town of Madama and detained two Palestinians.
Two other Palestinians were detained as troops broke into their family homes in the northern West Bank city of Qalqiliya. (QNA)
