Israeli soldiers arrested on Saturday afternoon one Palestinian resident at Huwwara checkpoint, near the West Bank city of
Army claims that the resident carried a 20-cintemeter knife.
Last week, soldiers arrested a woman carrying a kitchen knife she bought for her household; the woman was arrested and interrogated for attempting to “stab a soldier”.
Soldiers could not prove their claim that the woman attempted to attack them with the knife, simply because she was not carrying it on her body.
