The raid targeted the home of the father of the suspected Ariel terrorist Abed al-Karim Assi. Between four and seven people are arrested by the Israeli forces, according to conflicting Palestinian reports.
At least 20 Palestinians are said to be wounded after clashes with the Israeli troops carrying out the raid.
