They also detained another after breaking into and ransacking his house in Burqa town, north of the city.
The soldiers conducted a large-scale search campaign in Ni‘lin, Deir Qaddis, Kharbatha Bani Harith and Bil‘in, a cluster of towns located to the West of Ramallah, where they forcibly entered and ransacked a number of houses, turning them upside down, WAFA reported.

In Hebron district, the sources confirmed a similar military raid in Dura town, southwest of the city, resulting in the detention of another.
Israeli forces frequently raid Palestinian houses almost on a daily basis across the West Bank on the pretext of searching for “wanted” Palestinians, triggering clashes with residents.
