The blocked roads connect Madama to the nearby village of Asira al-Qibliya, the Al-Murabba’a military checkpoint and the village of Burin. In recent days, Madama has been subjected to a series of similar raids, leading to frequent confrontations between villagers and Israeli forces, said WAFA.
The Israeli army also stormed the town of Burqa in Nablus.
Incursions also took place in the towns of Silwad and Deir Jarir, east of Ramallah in the central West Bank, as well as in the village of Marda in the Salfit district, where Israeli forces used sonic grenades.

In video footage shared on social media, Rehbi al-Shalabi, reportedly 17 years old, was seen coming to a halt on a motorbike, a few meters away from the PA forces in a security vehicle. PA forces open fire at al-Shalabi who immediately falls off his bike. His brother was also injured in the shooting.
The Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades in a statement condemned what it called the cold-blooded killing of an innocent citizen … as witnessed in the circulated video. The Brigades said it showed how PA Security Forces “executed him in cold blood, mimicking the actions of the criminal enemy soldiers against our people in the West Bank and the Gaza Strip.”
