Qalqiliya – Ma'an – Israeli forces raided the Yasser Arafat school on Monday in Azzun, east of Qalqiliya, a municipality statement said.

Israeli forces entered the school during morning roll call, the municipality said, as administrative staff attempted to compel them to leave.

The withdrawal came after Azzun Mayor Iyad Khalaf spoke with Qalqiliya Governor Rabieh Khandaqji to coordinate, the statement said.

An Israeli military spokeswoman told Ma'an that Israeli forces performed a search operation in Azzun after rocks were hurled at soldiers. Palestinian youths were questioned in the incident, with no arrests or "irregular incidents" reported by the army, she said.

The spokeswoman added that Israeli forces did not enter the school building.
