Israeli occupation forces make mass arrests

Israeli occupation forces have launched another campaign of mass arrests in the occupied West Bank. Starting in the early hours of Monday morning, December 14, the target area encompassed several cities and villages.

 


An Israeli army spokesman said that its troops arrested at least 21 Palestinians from different parts of the occupied territory. He did not reveal whether the detainees have any particular political affiliations, although he did say, “The detainees were referred to the relevant security authorities for investigation.”

The Israeli occupation forces carry out such campaigns and raids across the West Bank almost on a daily basis under the pretext of pursuing “militants”, whom they accuse of resisting the illegal occupation.
