Israeli occupation forces have continued an extended blockade of Palestinian families in the Jabal Ras al-Ain area west of Qasra village south of Nablus for 22 consecutive days, Shehab Wire reported. The siege has imposed severe restrictions on civilian movement, with residents barred from traveling even within the courtyards of their own homes.
The blockade represents an escalation in restrictions on Palestinians in the region. Families remain unable to access basic services or move freely as the Israeli military maintains its encirclement of the area. No official statement regarding the duration or conditions for lifting the siege has been made public.
