Tuesday 29-April-2008

JENIN (PIC)– IOF troops have kidnapped Nawal Al-Saadi the wife of detained Islamic Jihad leader Bassam Al-Saadi at one of the Nablus city’s roadblocks leaving their seven children parentless.

Fuad Al-Khafash the director of Ahrar center for prisoners’ studies denounced the kidnap of the 49-year-old mother of seven for no known reason except pressuring her husband.

Khafash noted that Bassam was already sentenced to five years imprisonment term while one of her children was detained for one and a half year.

He charged the IOF command with deliberately detaining wives of Palestinian prisoners in an attempt to pressure those internees and to weaken the moral of Palestinian families and their social life.

The Saadi family had adopted a child from Bosnia a few years ago while two of their children (twins) were killed by IOF soldiers in Jenin refugee camp within a period of 40 days.

Meanwhihle IOF troops at dawn Tuesday stormed Alezaria town to the east of occupied Jerusalem and rounded up 30 citizens.

Director of a legal office in the town said that the soldiers burst into the town in 10 vehicles and broke into and ransacked many homes before taking away the young men in a big truck.

In retaliation to IOF atrocities the Qassam Brigades the armed wing of the Hamas Movement on Tuesday claimed responsibility for firing nine Qassam missiles at the Israeli settlement of Sderot to the north of Gaza and ten mortar shells at two IOF positions.
