Soldiers settlers storm towns in Nablus overnight

Saturday 4-August-2018

The Israeli occupation forces (IOF) at dawn Saturday stormed the town of Asira al-Qibliya south of Nablus in the West Bank and took photos of several homes.

According to local sources Israeli foot soldiers came from the illegal settlement of Yitzhar to their town at dawn and embarked on photographing homes including the house of mayor Hafed Saleh.

The troops withdrew from the town after they toured its neighborhoods.

There is still no information about why the IOF took pictures of homes in the town.

During the past week Asira al-Qibliya had been exposed to aggressive practices by soldiers and settlers who set fire to cultivated plots of lands and attacked homes.

In a separate incident a horde of armed Jewish settlers infiltrated into the eastern area of Bayt Dajan town aboard vehicles and toured the area for several hours before withdrawing to their settlement.
