Since the morning of June 10, Israeli forces have been raiding the Old City of Nablus in the occupied West Bank — storming homes and shops, abducting dozens of Palestinians, and assaulting civilians and paramedics with live ammunition.

At the Martyrs’ Roundabout in central Nablus, Israeli soldiers shot dead a Palestinian youth. The young man, seen unarmed with his hands raised, was assaulted by one soldier, then by four others. As he tried to defend himself — possibly grabbing at a soldier’s rifle — he reportedly injured four soldiers. Seconds later, he was executed.

When paramedics attempted to reach him, Israeli forces opened fire, injuring one and blocking Red Crescent teams from providing care. Soldiers also directly targeted ambulances with live rounds near the Martyrs’ Roundabout, causing damage.

While Israeli media claims the youth tried to seize a weapon, available footage tells a different story.

In the same raid, two brothers — Nedal and Khalid Mahdi Ameera — were killed.

Two AFP journalists reported witnessing soldiers shoot a Palestinian man before taking his body. The army did not immediately respond when AFP reached out for comment. Hundreds of journalists, including international media representatives, were present at the scene.

Other Violations: Shortly after midnight, dozens of Israeli military vehicles entered the town. According to an AFP correspondent, a curfew had been announced the day before through loudspeakers.

Soldiers opened fire with live rounds and tear gas, resulting in at least 27 Palestinians suffering from tear gas suffocation — including children — according to Amid Ahmed, director of the Red Crescent Emergency and Ambulance Center in Nablus.

Approximately 250 houses were raided. Dozens were injured or abducted.

At least 80 Palestinians were wounded — including paramedics and children — from live bullet fragments, tear gas inhalation, beatings, and even a military vehicle running over a citizen.

The army stormed homes and shops across multiple neighborhoods, forcing residents to evacuate and converting some homes into military outposts, while snipers were deployed on rooftops.

Israeli forces detained an unspecified number of young men, without revealing their identities.

Homes were targeted with both live bullets and tear gas canisters, while additional arrests were carried out.

Assault on Journalists: A WAFA correspondent reported that the Israeli army obstructed the work of journalists and prevented coverage of the military incursion.

Educide: The Nablus Education Directorate announced the suspension of all school operations in the city and the postponement of unified exams until next Monday.

Perpetrator (per Israeli sources): The Israeli army stated on X that the army, Shin Bet (internal security), and the Border Police jointly carried out the military operation on Tuesday in the Kasbah neighborhood of Nablus' Old City.
