JERUSALEM, December 8, 2025 (WAFA) – Israeli occupation forces on Monday evening stormed Silwan neighborhood in the occupied city of Jerusalem, according to Jerusalem Governorate.

It said that the occupying forces barged their way into the Aby Tayeh neighborhood, a part of Silwan, and occupied the rooftops of several civilians’ houses, turning them into military posts.

The gun-toting soldiers opened indiscriminate fire, but there were no casualties.

Meanwhile, Israeli infantry soldiers stormed Kafr Malek village, northeast of Ramallah, and deployed in several neighborhoods.

There was no immediate information on any house raids or detention cases.

The occupation forces frequently raid Palestinian houses almost daily across the West Bank on the pretext of searching for “wanted” Palestinians, triggering clashes with residents.

These raids are conducted without the need for a search warrant, whenever and wherever the military chooses, in keeping with its sweeping arbitrary powers.

Under Israeli military law, army commanders have full executive, legislative, and judicial authority over 3 million Palestinians living in the West Bank. Palestinians have no say in how this authority is exercised.
