Israeli occupation forces continued to storm several neighborhoods and suburbs of the city of Tulkarm and its two refugee camps in the occupied West Bank.
The official Palestinian news agency WAFA reported that the occupation forces raided a residential building in the southern neighborhood of the city, and searched residential homes there. Palestinian residents were detained and subjected to interrogation, while Israeli snipers were deployed on the roofs.
The occupation army also raided a number of other homes in the area, as well as in the two suburbs of Dhanaba, east of the city, and Shweika, to its north.
