Occupied Jerusalem: The Israeli occupation forces conducted incursions into various parts of the occupied West Bank on Saturday.

These operations resulted in 14 Palestinians being injured by live bullets or asphyxiation, with local sources reporting that three Palestinians were shot and injured in the town of Al-Ram and were hospitalized, with their health conditions confirmed to be stable.

In addition, 11 Palestinians were injured, among them four children, after being asphyxiated due to the occupation soldiers' storming of the city of Tubas and the village of Tayasir, east of Tubas.

The Palestinian Red Crescent Society in Tubas dealt with the cases of suffocation during the incursions into the city, as several military vehicles patrolled the streets while the occupation soldiers were deployed there, the sources added.
