The Israeli security forces located and confiscated military equipment and ammunition, and during the activities, Palestinians threw stones and hurled Molotov cocktails and explosives. The Israeli forces responded with measures to disperse the crowds.
During the operation, one Border Police officer was slightly wounded and taken to the hospital for medical treatment.
In addition, the Israeli security forces arrested six wanted persons suspected of involvement in terrorist activities from the West Bank area of Nahalin, where military equipment was located and four vehicles were confiscated.
A further seven wanted persons were arrested in the villages of al-Dawha, Asakra, Baytin, Bardala, Al-Bireh, and Turmus Ayya. All of the suspects and confiscated weapons were transferred to the Israeli security forces for further processing.
Israel is facing a major upsurge in attacks on civilians and soldiers. On Wednesday, a 17-year-old Palestinian terrorist stabbed two people in Jerusalem.
