IOF detains Palestinians under various pretexts hoping to contain an armed liberations movement

Sunday, the Israeli occupation forces (IOF) detained several Palestinians in a multitude of neighborhoods across the occupied West Bank, under the pretext that they were "wanted by the security forces."

Local sources reported that the IOF detained Muhammad Tariq Hamamra (17 years), Ahmed Raed Zaki Za'oul (18 years), and Izz al-Din Muhammad Za'ul (19 years), from Husan village, west of Beit Lahm.

In Al-Khalil, the IOF detained two young men, Kanaan Jamal Al-Tal, and Asef Ali Swailem, after they stormed their town of Al-Zahiriyah, south of the city.

The detentions also targeted Muhammad Yasser Dana from Al-Quds, and liberated prisoner Bakr Abu Obaid from Jenin, one of the cadres of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad Movement from the town of Araba, Jenin District.

Additionally, the IOF stormed the town of Al-Isawiya, and carried out a massive campaign of detentions against a number of Palestinian residing there.

It is noteworthy that last October, occupation forces detained 690 Palestinians from the West Bank and occupied Al-Quds, including 119 children and 30 women.

Moreover, the villages and cities in the occupied West Bank and Al-Quds witnessed violent confrontations between residents and the occupation forces.

Settlers provocatively stormed Al-Aqsa Mosque

Simultaneously, settlers stormed the Al-Aqsa Mosque, through the Mughrabi Gate, under strict protection from the IOF.

The Department of Islamic Endowments in occupied Al-Quds said that "dozens of settlers stormed the Al-Aqsa Mosque since morning, and carried out provocative tours in its courtyards."

Furthermore, the department pointed out that "the settlers performed Talmudic rituals in the eastern area of the mosque, amid tight security from the occupation forces."

It is worth noting that the occupation forcescontinued to impose restrictions on the entry of worshipers from Al-Quds into Al-Aqsa while humiliatingly checking their IDs, and detaining, at its gates, several of them, merely because they are Palestinians.
