The Palestinian Red Crescent Society reported that three individuals, aged 17, 19, and 24, were severely beaten by the occupation forces and were subsequently transferred to the hospital for treatment. According to Palestine News and Information Agency - WAFA, Ziad Abu Omar, the head of Burqa village council, stated that large forces of the occupation army stormed the village in the morning.

During the operation, the forces turned a house into a military barracks in the center of the town and hoisted Israeli flags on it.
