The Israeli occupation forces (IOF) on Monday evening arrested a Palestinian citizen and two of his sons and confiscated construction equipment used to build a new house belonging to him in Nahalin town, west of Bethlehem in the West Bank.
Nahalin mayor Hani Fanoun said the IOF stormed the town, stopped a local resident called Mohamed Shakarneh from completing construction works on his house and then rounded him up along with his two sons, four-year-old Qais and 17-year-old Kamal.
Fanoun added that the IOF confiscated two concrete mixers and a pump from the construction site and took ID cards from Palestinian truck drivers before forcing them to transfer the equipment to Gush Etzion settlement bloc.
He expressed his concern that the IOF would carry out an administrative demolition order against the house as recently happened in Wadi Rahhal village.
