Ramallah (PIC)– A large number of IOF troops stormed Saturday different West Bank cities and villages despite the presence of some PA security elements in the invaded areas and imposed a curfew on the town of Beit Fajjar south of Bethlehem.
Palestinian local sources reported that a number of Israeli military patrols invaded the town amid intensive gunfire which started fire inside a Palestinian house.
They added that the invading troops raided at dawn the house of a Palestinian citizen called Maher Jawda and handed his family a summons to appear at the intelligence headquarters in the Etzion settlement.
The IOF troops also stormed areas in different part of Jenin without any reported arrests.
In the Tamoun town the IOF troops established a military checkpoint at the entrance to Tubas city and hindered the movement of Palestinian citizens while children from the town threw stones at the Israeli soldiers who responded by opening fire at the children without reporting any injuries.

Palestinian local sources told the PIC reporter that Israeli tanks and artillery units which are stationed east of Qarara fired two shells at civilian homes causing panic among citizens and damage to their houses.
Al-Quds Brigades the armed wing of Islamic Jihad on Thursday claimed responsibility for engaging a special Israeli force that tried to infiltrate into east of Qarara.
