RAMALLAH, October 12, 2026 (WAFA) – Israeli occupation forces on Monday evening demolished a memorial commemorating slain Palestinians in Abu Falah, northeast of Ramallah, according to local sources.

They reported that the occupation forces raided the village accompanied by a military bulldozer and tore down a memorial in the center of the village.

They added that the occupation forces barged their way into the nearby village of Kafr Malik, but no villager was detained.

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.
