On Tuesday evening, Israeli soldiers abducted five Palestinians, including two children, from Jericho, Tubas, and Jerusalem, in the occupied West Bank.
The Jericho office of the Palestinian Prisoners Society (PPS) said the soldiers invaded the Al-Awja village, north of the city, in the northeastern West Bank, and abducted Mustafa Ayman Jarhoud, 17, and Omar Hani Najjoum, 17.
The soldiers also abducted Ahmad Ziad Sawafta, 22, from Tubas in the northeastern West Bank, after stopping him at the Al-Hamra military roadblock and detained Firas Hussein Daraghma, 23, for a few hours before releasing him.
Furthermore, the army abducted Mo’men Yahia Al-Akhras, 30, at Jericho’s southern entrance while he was leaving the city.
The Israeli military continued the strict measures and closures in the Jordan Valley and Jericho for the eighteenth consecutive day, closing and isolating entire communities.
In occupied Jerusalem, the soldiers abducted Mahdi Ayyad from Abu Dis town, southeast of the city, after summoning him for interrogation.
