Israeli army troops and jeeps stormed the village of Dura south of the West Bank city of Hebron Wednesday morning.
According to local residents, troops stormed residents’ homes, searched them and ransacked them, looking for what they claim to be “wanted Palestinians.” Soldiers detained scores of young men from the village and forced them to stand against the wall for several hours while checking their IDs, then released them, residents reported.
In separate incident, Nasser Abu Samra, 25, from Yatta village near the city was arrested by the Israeli army while going through the borders in Jericho and was taken to an unknown location. No reasons were given for his arrest according to his family.
