Israeli occupation forces on Sunday kidnapped a Palestinian university student from the southern occupied West Bank province of al-Khalil and cracked down on Palestinians’ free movement in the area.
Reporting from al-Khalil a PIC news correspondent said Israeli border cops set up a makeshift checkpoint near al-Khalil’s Glass Factory on the Halhul Bridge to the north and subjected Palestinian drivers to intensive inspection and searches.
Palestinian student Mohamed Hamdan aged 22 and enrolled at the Quds Open University was kidnapped by the occupation forces after they stopped a vehicle for public transportation passing through the area.
Hamdan got his eyes blindfolded and hands cuffed before he was dragged to an unidentified destination.
The Israeli forces further cracked down on Palestinians blocking their free access out of and into the area.
