Monday 12-February-2018

Several Palestinians were kidnapped by the Israeli occupation forces (IOF) in overnight and predawn sweeps rocking the West Bank and Jerusalem.

Reporting from Jenin in the northern West Bank a PIC news correspondent said the IOF stormed the city’s western towns of Berkin Kafran and al-Yamon before they raked through residential neighborhoods.

Palestinian young men Ziad Ubeidi and Wasim Abed were kidnapped by the IOF from their family homes in Jenin.

Israeli soldiers also sealed off the Jenin-Haifa access road with a flying military checkpoint.

At the same time Israeli military troops rolled into Tulkarem and kidnapped the Palestinian youth Khaled Kou’ from Beit Leid town.

Two more Palestinian youths were kidnapped by the occupation forces from Deir Istiya in Salfit.

The campaign culminated in the abduction of five Palestinians from Bethlehem and another from al-Khalil in the southern occupied West Bank.

Two more Palestinians—Siraj Kashour and Sofian al-Natsha—were arrested by the Israeli forces in Occupied Jerusalem.
