 Haidar Ibrahim, Secretary General of the General Union of Palestinian Workers, reported on Friday that Israeli forces have kidnapped more than 200 Palestinian workers in Israel since the beginning of the Holy Muslim month of Ramadan. Dozens of workers were abused then released later on.
Ibrahim stated that while Israel claims to implement measures that ease restrictions on movement, the army is doing the exact opposite. Israeli claims have become pure propaganda for media consumption and delude the International Community. He added that Palestinian workers are not granted work permits in Israel and are being chased and harassed while trying to work and feed their families. During the current month of Ramadan, the army has arrested 200 workers, including several women, and Israeli courts have imposed high fines on them. Ibrahim also stated that the soldiers punched and clubbed at least 20 workers even though they carried the required work permits. In several cases soldiers tore the permits and threw them away. |
