On Tuesday evening, Israeli soldiers abducted a Palestinian child from occupied Jerusalem in the West Bank.

Media sources said the soldiers abducted Rayyan Atiq, 15, while walking near the Sahera Gate, one of the gates of Jerusalem’s Old City.

They added that the soldiers took the abducted child to a nearby police station. The soldiers also stopped and interrogated several Palestinians while inspecting their ID cards.

In Silwan town, south of the Al-Aqsa Mosque, the soldiers invaded the Be’er Ayyoub neighborhood, leading to protests, and fired many gas bombs and concussion grenades at the protesters and the surrounding homes.

On Tuesday dawn, Israeli soldiers abducted at least twenty-eight Palestinians from their homes in several parts of the occupied West Bank, mostly from Hebron, in the southern part.
