Al Mayadeen's correspondent in Palestine reported on Friday that Israeli Occupation Forces assaulted the residents of the Sheikh Jarrah neighborhood after Friday prayers, adding that "occupation forces are firing rubber bullets on Palestinians in Jabal Sbeih in Beita."

Palestinian media also said that "occupation forces are oppressing families showing support with the Salem family, who are facing forced displacement from Sheikh Jarrah."

The al-Aqsa Mosque's grand preacher Sheikh Ekrima Sabri held the Friday prayer and spoke in support of the Salems, who are threatened by the IOF with forced displacement at the end of the month. The IOF also arrested a Palestinian youth, Mohammad Hussein Keswani.

Last night, the IOF also arrested nine Palestinian girls returning home from al-Quds to the occupied West Bank, as they were returning from prayer in the al-Aqsa mosque.

Israeli settlers injured a number of Palestinians on Friday as they attacked their homes south of Nablus, and attempted to kidnap one Palestinian, but their attempt was foiled after locals rushed to his aid.
