According to Middle East Eye, the Italian foreign ministry says five Italian activists were detained near Al-Lubban al-Gharbiyye in the West Bank during an operation that reportedly also involved other foreign citizens, and it calls for their immediate release. A Telegram account, ME Observer, separately reports Palestinian Authority security forces arresting released prisoners and activists in a new wave of West Bank arrests, without a specific location or figures.

Details by origin
Each detail, with the independent origins that reported it. An origin is the outlet or channel where a claim first appeared; reposts count once. A row counts no more independent origins than the event does above; where it lists more, it says so. This counts reports: it is not a measure of accuracy, and it does not change the event's status. "Reports differ" means two origins gave values that cannot both be true; it is about that detail, not about whether the incident happened.
