Israeli forces have stormed the northern West Bank city of Tubas, triggering an intense exchange of gunfire with Palestinian resistance fighters.

The occupation troops aboard military vehicles raided Tubas early on Sunday and their bulldozers closed off entrances to the city.

Reports said the regime soldiers demolished a Palestinian house, leaving injuries at the site.

Witnesses said that the Israeli forces might destroy two more homes and that the regime snipers took position on rooftops in the West Bank city.

Meanwhile, Palestinian resistance fighters confronted the invasion and targeted Israeli vehicles with powerful explosive devices.

Israeli forces regularly conduct violent raids on cities across the occupied West Bank, targeting residents and their property.

Israeli settlers attack Palestinians on West Bank road

Separately, the Palestinian Wafa news agency reported that Israeli settlers have attacked Palestinian vehicles on the road connecting the West Bank cities of Ramallah and Nablus.

Citing local sources, the report said that the Israeli settlers threw stones at cars outside the village of Luban e-Sharkiya. However, no injuries were reported among Palestinian drivers.

Israel has intensified its attacks against Palestinians throughout the West Bank since October 7, when it launched a devastating war on the besieged Gaza Strip.

More than 270 Palestinians have been killed and thousands more injured by Israeli troops in the West Bank over the past two months.

In Gaza, at least 17,700 Palestinians, mostly women and children, have been killed and nearly 49,000 others wounded, while many people are still trapped under the rubble.
