NAZARETH (PIC)– IOF troops on Monday nabbed four Palestinians in Jenin Nablus and Al-Khalil on the alleged charges of being affiliated with the Hamas Islamic Jihad and Fatah armed wings according to locals.
They said that the IOF unit that stormed the Jenin refugee camp was ambushed by Palestinian resistance fighters who blasted three explosive devices in the invading troops.
An IOF spokesman acknowledged the attack but claimed that no casualties were suffered.
The Israeli police force in the green line (Palestinian lands occupied in 1948) last night rounded up 16 Palestinian workers claiming they were not carrying proper work permits.
The Hebrew radio said that the Palestinian workers were arrested in the city of Nazareth adding that half of them would stand trial while the other half would be “expelled” back to the West Bank.
In Bethlehem IOF soldiers bulldozed vast areas of Palestinian lands cultivated with grapes south of Bethlehem city.
Owners of the lands said that the soldiers’ act was not the first of its kind adding that the soldiers routinely storm and damage their lands in a bid to force the indigenous inhabitants of those lands to leave and then annex their lands to the nearby settlement complex of Kfar Etzion.
