According to local reports, occupation forces have deployed reinforcements and military bulldozers to intensify attacks on Palestinian homes, amid preparations to destroy residential properties in the town.

The escalation follows a resistance operation on Friday in the Beisan and Afula areas inside the 1948 occupied territories, in which two Israelis were killed and several others wounded, according to censored Hebrew media reports.

In the aftermath of that operation, carried out by a Palestinian from Qabatiya, Israeli regime forces sharply increased their assaults across the West Bank, with the town placed under particular pressure, Al Jazeera reported. 

Since Friday, Qabatiya has remained under the boots of occupation forces, as Israeli army radio reported that the town was sealed off and placed under a strict curfew.

Meanwhile, Israeli military radio said the town continues to face a full siege, with Israeli forces operating inside Qabatiya under air force support, while preparing an initial phase to demolish the home of the alleged attacker in Beisan.
