According to local sources heavily armed Israeli patrols raided Na’luwa’s family home and came down heavily on his parents and relatives. An Israeli soldier ordered the father to rent a vehicle and call his son via loudspeakers to turn himself in.
Violent search sweeps were carried out overnight by the Israeli army in al-Jaroushiya area where civilian homes and shops were ransacked.
The occupation forces also rolled into al-Salam neighborhood and attacked Palestinian civilians all the way through. Clashes burst out as a result.
At the same time a Palestinian boy was rushed to Thabet Thabet Hospital in Tulkarem after he was shot by Israeli bullet fire in his head. He was later transferred to Rafidia Hospital in Nablus so as to be urgently treated for skull fractures and an internal hemorrhage infecting his body.
