On Friday dawn, Israeli soldiers abducted a Palestinian man east of Nablus, in the northern part of the occupied West Bank, after failing to find his son, whom they initially sought to arrest.

Media sources reported that several armored military vehicles invaded Balata Al-Balad, east of Nablus, before storming and ransacking homes, causing damage.

They added that the soldiers abducted Nidal Kassab from his home and took him to an unknown location.

Notably, the soldiers initially intended to abduct one of Nidal’s sons but decided to take him instead because his son was not at home.

The soldiers also invaded the Al-Ein refugee camp, east of Nablus, and searched homes, causing property damage.
