Palestinians across the West Bank have escalated their confrontations with the Israeli occupation as the latter continues its genocidal policies in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank, killing dozens daily.
Two Israeli occupation soldiers were injured as a result of a stabbing operation at the Tunnels Checkpoint west of Beit Lahm, leading to the occupied al-Quds.
Reports revealed the martyrdom of the Palestinian who conducted the operation to avenge the dozens of murders committed by the Israeli occupation across the West Bank since October 7.
Following the operation, Israeli occupation police blocked the road at the Tunnels Checkpoint, further restricting the movement of the Palestinian people living under occupation. The Israeli occupation police then mobilized additional forces, deploying their personnel around the checkpoint and on the roads leading to Beit Lahm and occupied al-Quds.
As seen in videos released by people held up at the checkpoint, the Israeli occupation police carried out inspections of vehicles belonging to Palestinian people and verified the identities of travelers.

The Al-Quds governorate’s media confirmed that 12-year-old child Rami Hamdan Halhouli was killed as a result of a shot to the heart at the Shuafat Camp checkpoint.

In the vicinity of al-Aqsa Mosque, Israeli occupation forces erected tents near Bab al-Amoud in the occupied city of al-Quds and turned them into military barracks.
The occupation forces also set up iron barriers around Bab al-Asbat to restrict the movement of Palestinian citizens and prevent them from reaching al-Aqsa Mosque.
The Israeli occupation forces were also deployed at the entrances to the Old City and neighborhoods of occupied al-Quds, hindering the arrival of worshippers and preventing hundreds of Palestinian youths from accessing the al-Aqsa Mosque compound.
Since the start of the Muslim holy month of Ramadan, the Israeli occupation forces imposed restrictions for the second consecutive day on the entry of Palestinian youths to al-Aqsa Mosque compound for the Isha and Taraweeh prayers, allowing men only over the age of 40 and women to enter, while obstructing their movement through checkpoints.
However, the Israeli restrictions did not prevent Palestinian worshippers from flocking through Bab al-Amoud to perform the Isha and Taraweeh prayers at al-Aqsa Mosque.
