RAMALLAH — Israeli security forces arrested at least 13 people on Thursday in raids across the occupied West Bank, Palestinian sources said, while six Palestinians were killed and several others wounded in Israeli strikes in the Gaza Strip. Those arrested in the West Bank included three brothers, the Prisoners’ Media Office and local sources said. Paramedic and anti-settlement activist Bashar al-Qaryouti was also among those arrested, the sources reported. In Hebron, Israeli forces continued raids and closures for the seventh consecutive day, shutting iron gates around the Old City and seizing Palestinian homes in the Jalda and Ain Deir Baha neighborhoods for use as military barracks, local sources told Turkish news agency Anadolu. The Hebron Municipality said Tuesday that the raids had displaced nearly 5,000 Palestinians, making up 780 families. The offensive began Friday following an attack by two Palestinians that killed two Israeli soldiers and wounded three others. The army later killed the two Palestinians. Between Friday and Wednesday, Israeli forces arrested 110 Palestinians, the Palestinian Prisoner Society said. In Salfit, Israeli forces demolished two Palestinian homes and bulldozed land in the town of Deir Ballut, municipal official Jihad Yassin told Anadolu. He said the forces also bulldozed water lines, citing construction without a permit, and that around 100 demolition notices had been issued in the town, by his estimate. Meanwhile, six Palestinians were killed and several others wounded in separate Israeli strikes in the Gaza Strip on Thursday, according to local sources. At least four government employees were killed in an Israeli strike that targeted the Economy Ministry post in the al-Mawasi area, west of Rafah in the southern Gaza Strip, the Gaza government media office said. It added that 30 others were wounded in the attack, including six in critical condition. The government media office described the attack on the post as “a new crime and a horrific massacre” targeting civilian public-sector employees. It said targeting government teams and civilian public employees was part of an “organized campaign by Israel to undermine government institutions and push the territory toward chaos and lawlessness.”Separately, two Palestinians were killed and others wounded in an Israeli drone strike targeting a civilian vehicle near the entrance to the Maghazi refugee camp in central Gaza, a medical source at Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital said. The source said the bodies of two Palestinians and several wounded people were brought to the hospital after the strike on Salah al-Din Street. Israeli military vehicles opened heavy fire toward homes and tents sheltering displaced people in areas northeast of Khan Younis in southern Gaza and east of Deir al-Balah in central Gaza, alongside intense artillery shelling, according to local sources. Israeli artillery also shelled northeastern areas of Gaza City, while military vehicles fired toward tents sheltering displaced people in the Halawa camp area east of Jabalia in northern Gaza, the sources said. The attacks come amid daily Israeli violations of a ceasefire agreement that took effect on Oct. 10, 2025, according to the statement.
