| [Iran Press TV Latest] Israeli troops have kidnapped four more Palestinian civilians in various areas of the occupied West Bank as part of Tel Aviv's campaign to silence activists. The civilians were arrested Wednesday during pre-dawn operations in the villages of Barta'a Al shrkyia, Arraba and Zabobaa near the northern West Bank city of Jenin. The Israeli military claims that the detainees were wanted activists and were taken into custody to be interrogated. Despite a security agreement with the Palestinian National Authority, the Israeli army continues to invade Palestinian homes and carry out such operations. Hundreds of Palestinian residents of West Bank cities, including teenagers, have been kidnapped over the past months. Currently thousands of Palestinians, including women and children, are held in Israeli jails and are reportedly kept under harsh conditions. |
