STORYLINE:
Lines of Israeli military vehicles entered downtown Ramallah on Tuesday afternoon in a rare daytime raid.
The Israeli military acknowledged an ongoing operation in the city but would not provide any information about the purpose of the raid.
The Palestinian Red Crescent said there were 58 injuries during the raid, including injuries from live and rubber bullets, tear gas inhalation, and shrapnel.
Israeli armored vehicles entered a busy downtown intersection in the city, stopping traffic.
A few dozen people attempted to throw rocks at the military vehicles.
The war in Gaza has sparked a surge of violence in the West Bank, with the Israeli military carrying out large-scale operations targeting militants that have killed hundreds of Palestinians and displaced tens of thousands.
That has coincided with a rise in settler violence and Palestinian attacks on Israelis.
There have been more than 1,000 attacks by Israeli settlers throughout 2025, with 11 Palestinians killed and roughly 700 injured, according to the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs.
A daylight operation in downtown Ramallah is a unusual occurrence.
