37 Palestinian civilians rounded up by IOF in WB, OJ campaign

AL-KHALIL, (PIC)-- At least 37 Palestinian citizens were rounded up by the Israeli occupation forces (IOF) Thursday following a round of mass-abduction campaigns launched throughout different areas of the West Bank and Occupied Jerusalem. The IOF arrested dozens of Palestinian citizens after having stormed civilians’ homes in Dura, Bani Naim, Beit Ummar, and Beit Kahel among many other neighborhoods in al-Khalil city, local sources told a PIC reporter. Six more Ramallah youngsters were captured by the IOF invading troops following a series of incursions into Beit Rima, Birzeit, Senjel, and Khirbat Bani Harith. The IOF broke into the family home of ex-detainee Walid Injas, released in Wafa al-Ahrar prisoner swap deal and exiled to Qatar. Palestinian youths Mahmoud Qubha and Suleiman al-Azb were also rounded up by the IOF in Jenin. Human rights sources confirmed that 16 Jerusalemites were captured by Israeli special and intelligence forces for having allegedly partaken in protests denouncing the kidnap and burning alive of Palestinian child Muhammad  Hussein Abu Khudeir. IOF attacks culminated in a series of arbitrary bullying procedures launched against Shufa’at natives, including punishment for trivial violations, wastewater spray, and abduction campaigns.
