At dawn today, Israeli occupation forces conducted a mass arrest campaign against 50 Palestinian citizens most of whom are liberated prisoners and including two women, after storming and searching their family homes in different regions of the West Bank.
It is worth noting that the West Bank witnessed, yesterday, a comprehensive strike, in solidarity with the people of the Gaza Strip and against the continuation of successive Israeli massacres, the most recent of which was the two massacres in the Jabalia camp, north of the Strip.
In the rallies, the demonstrators lauded all the Resistance forces in Yemen, Iraq, and Lebanon, for their unity under Operation Al-Aqsa Flood.
