The Ministry of Health announced "one injury from live ammunition in the extremities, who arrived at Rafidia Government Hospital in Nablus due to the Israeli aggression on the city this morning." Local sources reported that the forces besieged the house of the family of Adham Mabrouka Al-Shishani in the Old City.

According to the Prisoners' Club, two young men were arrested during the storming operation and were transferred to an unknown location.
