In a strong statement, President Joe Biden and Secretary of State Antony Blinken have affirmed the United States' commitment to ensuring the safe return of all Israeli hostages. The pledge comes as tensions rise following an incident where Israeli security forces carried out a rare raid on the An-Najah National University campus, detaining several students.

According to reports from the Palestinian Wafa news agency, the overnight operation marked a significant event as it was the first time in over three decades that Israeli forces had entered the university premises. Social media footage circulating online seemingly captures the moment a military vehicle arrives at the university, and other clips show soldiers entering the campus.

The incident is believed to be linked to two Palestinians who reportedly breached a roadblock and opened fire at troops near the West Bank settlement of Metzad. Surprisingly, both individuals were identified as students of An-Najah National University. As of now, there has been no immediate comment from the Israel Defense Forces regarding the arrests or the operation at the university.

The Biden administration's reassurance to pursue the release of Israeli hostages adds a layer of complexity to the situation, as diplomatic efforts and regional tensions continue to evolve. The international community will be closely watching for further developments in this unfolding story.
