IDF and security forces arrested six wanted men during nightly raids in Judea and Samaria, five of them on suspicions of grassroots terrorism and violent disturbances against Israeli civilians and security forces. In the Palestinian Authority refugee camp of Qalandiya, security forces apprehended an operative from the Hamas terrorist organization.

Palestinian Authority media outlets report that during raids in the Daheisheh refugee camp, south of Bethlehem, an Arab terrorist was seriously injured by IDF gunfire after he threw Molotov cocktails at the security forces.

Clashes apparently broke out following arrests in the camp, when several PA Arabs started throwing stones and Molotov cocktails at the forces. The IDF Spokesperson has yet to confirm the Palestinian reports, though the unit did contend that three suspects were arrested in Daheisheh.

Additionally, security forces seized a lathe used for manufacturing illegal weapons in Kafr aad-Dik in northern Judea and Samaria. It was then transferred to the relevant authorities.
