NABLUS (PIC)– A high-ranking IOF officer was seriously wounded in an IOF incursion into the West Bank city of Nablus when Palestinian resistance fighters detonated four planted roadside bombs in their military vehicles at dawn Thursday Hebrew sources affirmed.
Seven other IOF servicemen were also wounded in the explosion as Israeli medical sources described wounds of four of them as serious.
More than 60 IOF armored vehicles pushed into the city from all directions shortly after midnight Wednesday and placed the entire city under curfew.
Tens of ambulance workers were seized by the intruding forces and prevented from extending help to Palestinian civilians injured in the incursion.
The curfew was declared in the city till further notice as IOF troops alleged they were searching for wanted resistance activists.
The military onslaught prompted the education directorate in the city to suspend high school examinations and urged the students to proceed to safer centers to take the exam.
According to eyewitnesses in the city the IOF troops occupied a number of Palestinian homes and turned them into temporary barracks before kidnapping two young men from those houses.
PA chief Mahmoud Abbas issued a decree disbanding all armed wings of the Palestinian resistance factions although the IOF troops are still persisting in their atrocities against the Palestinian civilians.
Yet Abbas’s decree was shrugged off and rejected by many Palestinian resistance factions including Hamas the Islamic Jihad and a number of offshoots of Fatah faction among others.
