Israeli occupation forces bulldozed large areas of land and uprooted dozens of olive trees in the Mughayyir area, northeast of the village of Deir Qaddis west of Ramallah, on Sunday, aiming to pave a settlement road, according to the Palestinian news agency Wafa. The forces blocked agricultural roads leading to the area with rocks, hindering farmers' access to their land, while bulldozing continues between Deir Qaddis and the neighboring village of Kharbatha Bani Harith, in preparation for establishing a settlement. In the Ramallah and al-Bireh governorate, occupation forces raided the villages of Al-Mughayyir, Deir Jarir, and Al-Taybeh on Sunday evening, with no reports of arrests. In occupied East Jerusalem, settlers stormed the Jaba' Bedouin encampment and raided residents' homes, with no injuries reported. In Hebron, occupation forces seized five vehicles and a forklift from the Jalda area, while continuing to besiege the Jalda and Deir Baha areas, preventing residents from accessing their homes and closing shops.
