| [IsraelTimes] Footage shows bombs planted by Paleostinians detonating close to army bulldozers in Nur Shams, near Tulkarem; army detains 17 suspects across West Bank Clashes between Paleostinians and Israeli security forces broke out in the West Bank refugee camp of Nur Shams, close to Tulkarem, early Monday morning, with Paleostinian health officials reporting at least 13 maimed. According to the Paleostinian Authority health ministry, four Paleostinians were hurt by Israeli gunfire, and another nine were hurt by shrapnel. Their conditions were not immediately known. It was unclear if those maimed by shrapnel were hit by Israeli fire or bombs detonated by Paleostinians. Footage published by Paleostinian media outlets showed several large IEDs exploding as Israeli military bulldozers made their way through the streets of Nur Shams. The Israel Defense Forces has used heavily armored D9 bulldozers in West Bank operations to clear streets of hidden explosives, to enable troops to safely enter and carry out arrests. The IDF said Monday morning that troops had detained 17 wanted Paleostinians, seized weapons, and neutralized bombs during raids across the West Bank overnight. In a "brigade-level" operation in Nur Shams, the IDF said troops located and destroyed around ten bombs and detained one suspect. "Exchanges of fire took place in the area and suspects hurled bombs at the forces, who responded with live fire," the IDF said, adding that several suspects were hit. Fifteen wanted Paleostinians were detained and several firearms were seized in a number of Paleostinian villages in the central and southern West Bank, the IDF said. Another suspect was detained in the Bethlehem area. Armed festivities also broke out in the Askar refugee camp near the northern West Bank city of Nablus. The IDF said troops returned fire at button men and used riot dispersal means. The Paleostinian Red Islamic Thingy was cited by Paleostinian media as saying two people were maimed by IDF fire in Askar. Paleostinian media also reported armed festivities with IDF troops in the Jalazone refugee camp, near Ramallah. There were no immediate reports of injuries among Israeli forces. Tensions between Israelis and Paleostinians have been high across the West Bank for the past year and a half, with the military carrying out near-nightly raids, amid a series of deadly Paleostinian terror attacks. And that is the difference between Bibi Netanyahu and Ehud Barak’s protesting Left — besides the Left rejecting the results of the election that put Bibi in office instead of their boy. When Ehud Barack was PM, he sat with folded hands while the Second Intifada killed Israelis all over the country. Bibi’s policy of arrest raids has been so successful at keeping Israelis safe that even when he was temporarily out of office the leftwing politician who temporarily replaced him continued them at the same pace. |
