In occupied Jerusalem, the soldiers abducted Mo’tasem Maswada from his home in Wadi Hilweh in Silwan town, south of the Al-Aqsa Mosque, after repeatedly assaulting him, causing several injuries.
In related news, an Israeli court issues a five-day house arrest order against a young man, Mohammad Zeitoun, from Silwan town two days after the soldiers abducted him.
The army also invaded Anata town, northeast of Jerusalem, searched homes, and abducted a young man, Mohammad Issa Refa’ey.
In Hebron, in the southern part of the West Bank, the soldiers invaded Beit Ummar town, north of the city, searched many homes and abducted Karim Abdul-Rahman Arar, 21, and Mo’tasem Jamal Alqam, 24, and took them to illegal nearby Karmie Tzur colony, built on stolen Palestinian lands.
During the invasion, the soldiers forced several families out of their homes and forced them to wait in the cold while ransacking their properties.
