In Hebron, one citizen was taken prisoner during an IOF campaign.

In Occupied Jerusalem, Israeli police kidnapped five Palestinians from their homes in Silwan district, south of the Aqsa Mosque.

In Qalqiliya city, Israeli troops raided at dawn several homes, which triggered violent clashes with local young men.
