The Israeli occupation forces (IOF) kidnaped at dawn Sunday two Palestinian citizens from Nablus in the West Bank and stormed in the morning the east Jerusalem district of Silwan.
According to local sources in Nablus the IOF kidnaped two citizens during raids on homes in Beita town and Awarta village.
In Jerusalem Israeli police forces stormed Silwan district and searched Palestinian cars in its streets.
Last night the IOF intensified its security measures at the Beit El checkpoint that leads to the northern entrance of Bireh City in Ramallah.
The IOF also obstructed last night the movement of Palestinian citizens on a West Bank road after closing a military checkpoint near the illegal settlement of Ofra in eastern Ramallah.
In separate incidents the IOF stormed on Saturday evening Deir Nidham village in western Ramallah and raided the house of Nasr Mezher chief of the village council.
The IOF also closed the road barrier at the eastern entrance of Nabi Saleh village northwest of Ramallah and prevented vehicles and local residents from going in or out.
The barrier was closed as a punitive measure following clashes between the IOF and local youths near the military watchtower at the village’s eastern entrance.
