Saturday 15-December-2018

Palestinian young men on Friday night threw Molotov cocktails at an Israeli military watchtower at the main entrance to al-Arroub refugee camp north of al-Khalil in the occupied West Bank.

Eyewitnesses told a reporter for the Palestinian Information Center (PIC) that the watchtower caught fire following the attack provoking the Israeli occupation army to dispatch soldiers to the camp to look for the perpetrators.

They added that soldiers stormed the camp amid intensive gunfire and clashed with some youths during their search campaign.

Later the father of Abdullah Ghaith the child who was kidnapped by Palestinian Authority (PA) security elements on Friday afternoon said that Israeli soldiers at dawn Saturday came to his house and handed his son Louay a summons for interrogation from the Shin Bet.

PA security forces rounded up Abdullah Ghaith after they violently quelled a peaceful march organized by Hamas in al-Khalil to mark its founding anniversary.

Meanwhile Israeli media outlets claimed that an Israeli military force arrested four Palestinian young men after finding two automatic guns inside the car they were aboard in Abu Asnaina neighborhood in al-Khalil.
