Zionist occupation forces kidnaps 12 Palestinians in West Bank, Jerusalem
The zionist occupation forces (ZOF) at dawn Tuesday arrested 12 Palestinian citizens in Jerusalem and the West Bank, including the mother and brothers of a Palestinian young man who was shot dead by the Israeli police on Monday night in Jerusalem.
Local sources said that the ZOF arrested 12 Palestinians in Jerusalem, Nablus, Qalqilya, Bethlehem, Jenin, and Tubas.
Among the detainees were the mother and two brothers of the Palestinian martyr Ashraf Halsa, 30, who was murdered by the zionist police on Monday night near al-Aqsa Mosque.
The zionist police shot Halsa and prevented Palestinian medical crews from providing first aid to him, leaving him to bleed to death.
They claimed that Halsa stabbed and injured an Israeli police officer before he was shot.
Meanwhile, clashes were witnessed between the ZOF and Palestinian citizens during home raids in different parts of the West Bank. A number of Palestinians were arrested, including minors, but no injuries were reported. (ILKHA)
