On Friday night, Israeli occupation forces invaded Silwan town, in occupied Jerusalem in the West Bank, injured many, including children, and abducted one Palestinian.
The Wadi Hilweh Information Center In Silwan (Silwanic) said several Israeli army humvees stormed the town before soldiers broke into Palestinian homes, wreck havoc.
Silwanic added that many Palestinians protested the invasions, hurled stones, and used fireworks targeting the army vehicles while the soldiers fired live rounds, rubber-coated steel bullets, and gas bombs at the protesters and surrounding homes.
Many Palestinians, including children and an infant, suffered the severe effects of tear gas inhalation before Palestinian Red Crescent Medics (PRCS) provided them with the needed treatment.
Israeli occupation forces also abducted Zoheir Rajabi, the head of the Follow-Up Committee that monitors the Israeli violations, including attacks by the illegal colonialist settlers in Silwan, and his son Hamza, from their home.
The soldiers smashed the main door of Rajabi’s home before storming and ransacking it.
In related news, illegal Israeli colonizers vandalized many Palestinian cars in the al-Misrara area in Jerusalem.
On the same night, Israeli soldiers injured many Palestinians in the Bab az-Zawiya area in the center of Hebron city, in the southern part of the occupied West Bank.
Eyewitnesses said the occupation forces, stationed at the Shuhada Street military roadblock, attacked dozens of Palestinians who marched in the area, protesting the ongoing Israeli escalation and the street’s closure.
The soldiers fired many gas bombs at the Palestinians, causing dozens to suffer the effects of tear gas inhalation and detaining and interrogating several residents.
Shuhada Street, and all of its shops and stores, have been shut down by the Israeli occupation forces since the year 1994, after Israeli-American Baruch Goldstein stormed the Ibrahimi Mosque and opened automatic fire on worshipers on February 25, 1994, killing 29 and wounding more than 200, before some managed to subdue and kill him.
The soldiers also attacked protesters at the main entrance of the Tiwana village in Masafer Yatta, south of Hebron.
In Tubas, in the northeastern West Bank, the Israeli occupation confiscated a Palestinian bulldozer owned by Morad Nayef Wakhman while working in the Ein Shibly area in the Central Plains.
