Last night there were notable battles in the occupied West Bank. The city is essentially an internal border town:

"the city contains a refugee camp and is surrounded on three sides by a fence erected by Israel’s military as part of the separation wall it has built in and around the West Bank."

It's helpful to understand the location and place a bit to understand the battles last night.
