Israeli occupation forces abducted two Palestinian civilians on Wednesday evening in the city of Tulkarem, in the northwestern part of the occupied West Bank.
Media sources said Israeli soldiers intercepted a military medical services ambulance returning from Nablus at the Jabara military roadblock, south of Tulkarem.
They added that the soldiers searched the ambulance and abducted Raed Mohammad Dheeb Jaber, an officer in the military medical services unit in Tulkarem.
The army also abducted Mohannad Abbas while he was in the western neighborhood of the city.
Abbas is a resident of Qabatia, south of the northern West Bank city of Jenin, and a student at Palestine Technical University – Kadoorie in Tulkarem.
Later that night, Israeli soldiers violently assaulted Palestinian citizen Amro Al-Qattawi inside his shop in the same neighborhood. He was briefly detained before being released and transferred to the hospital for medical treatment.
Military forces roamed the streets of Tulkarem, particularly in the western area, impeding the movement of civilians and vehicles.
During the invasion, the soldiers stopped young men, inspected their identification cards, subjected them to interrogations, and confiscated the keys of a vehicle parked in front of a local shop.
These violations took place amid Israel’s ongoing assault on Tulkarem and its refugee camps, which has continued for the 185th consecutive day.
