Israeli occupation forces (IOF) on Wednesday evening arrested a schoolgirl from al-Nu’man village to the east of Bethlehem at Mazmuria checkpoint while she was returning from school and took her to an unknown destination.
Jamal Dar’awi the head of the Nu’man village council said that the IOF soldiers claimed that Lina Shawawra 16 was trying to enter her besieged village through an iron gate in the separation wall and that she had no proof that she is a resident of the village.
Dar’awi added that such allegations are repeatedly used by the Israeli soldiers to crack down on the citizens of the village.
