Israeli security forces arrested 24 suspects and uncovered arms stashes during overnight counter-terror raids in the West Bank, according to the military.
A statement from the Israel Defense Forces says 14 of the suspects were arrested in the Balata refugee camp near Nablus, where troops also confiscated weapons and destroyed explosives they uncovered.
In other incidents overnight, the IDF says gunmen opened fire at a military vehicle in the northern West Bank, resulting in no injures. Troops were scouring the area for the attackers.
The army also says rioting erupted in Ramallah after the arrest of a suspect, with soldiers using riot dispersal means to respond to rock-throwing.
According to the IDF, some 4,150 suspects have been arrested in the West Bank since October 7, around 1,750 belong to Hamas.
