The Israeli occupation forces (IOF) stormed at dawn Sunday the campus of Birzeit University in northern Ramallah and kidnaped the head of the student council and other senior members of the council.
According to Palestinian news reports Israeli soldiers went on the rampage through the headquarters of the student council at the university and rounded up a number of students.
Among the detainees are head of the student council Abdul-Majid Hasan and at least six members of the council and the Islamic Bloc (the student wing of Hamas).
The Birzeit University administration strongly denounced the Israeli occupation army for raiding its campus ransacking property and kidnaping a number of its students.
The administration condemned the IOF raid as a &ldquoblatant violation of the international law that protects university campuses and educational institutions.&rdquo
