The Palestinian Prisoners Society (PPS) has reported that Israeli soldiers kidnapped, on Thursday at dawn, at least seven Palestinians in different communities in the occupied West Bank.

The PPS said many military vehicles invaded Qarawat Bani Hassan town, in the central West Bank district of Salfit, broke into several homes and violently searched them, and kidnapped five Palestinians.

The kidnapped have been identified as Majd ‘Aasi, Laith Adnan Shaqliyya, Hatem Ali Rayyan, Mohammad Rashid Rayyan and Ahmad Mohammad Rayyan.

Soldiers also invaded the Jenin refugee camp, in the northern West Bank city of Jenin, and kidnapped ‘Aseed Haitham Abu Zeina, 24, after ransacking his home.

The army further installed a number of roadblocks around the Ya’bad village, west of Jenin.

In addition, several military vehicles invaded Deir Abu Mashal village, near the central West Bank city of Ramallah, and kidnapped a Palestinian identified as ‘Odai Yahia al-Barghouthi, 21.

The soldiers handed several Palestinians military warrants for interrogation at a nearby military and security base.

On Wednesday evening, soldiers handed two Palestinians military warrants ordering one of them to demolish his home, and the other to stop the construction.

Coordinator of the Popular Committee against the Wall and Settlements, Ahmad Salah, told the WAFA news agency that the soldiers, and personnel of the “Civil Administration Office," invaded Om Rokba area, and handed resident Khaled Saleh Salah a military order to demolish his 140 square/meter home.
