Palestinian resistance fighters clashed at dawn on Saturday with Israeli occupation forces as they stormed the city of Tulkarm, while a young man died of his wounds in Nablus in the northern West Bank.
At dawn today and last night, the Israeli army carried out new incursions into cities and towns in several areas in the West Bank, as part of an ongoing escalation since the resistance launched the Al-Aqsa Flood Battle on the 7th of last October.
In Tulkarm, which was subjected to a new night raid, armed clashes broke out between resistance fighters and the occupation forces during their incursion into the city.
The resistance fighters also detonated a homemade bomb in Israeli vehicles that were driving in one of the city's streets. Al Jazeera's correspondent said that Israeli forces stormed Tulkarm from its western axis.
Also in the northern West Bank, Palestinian sources reported that Israeli occupation forces stormed the western area of the city of Nablus and the town of Zawata near the city, in addition to the town east of Qalqilya.
The Israeli incursions also targeted the towns of Deir Ibzi', Kafr Ni'ma and Turmus Ayya in Ramallah, the Aida camp in Bethlehem, the towns of Yatta and Beit Awa, in addition to the town of Al-Ram, north of occupied Jerusalem.

A martyr in Nablus
Meanwhile, Palestinians mourned the young man Amid Al-Jagoub, who died of his wounds after being shot by Israeli occupation forces last August in the town of Beita, south of Nablus in the northern West Bank.
During the funeral, mourners chanted slogans in support of Gaza, which has been subjected to an Israeli war for more than 5 months that has left tens of thousands of martyrs and wounded and caused widespread destruction.
