HEBRON: Israeli occupation forces arrested six Palestinian citizens this evening from the Hebron governorate in the southern West Bank, according to Palestinian security sources.

The sources told WAFA that the occupation forces arrested four young men from the town of Beit Awwa, southwest of Hebron, while they were in the vicinity of the town near the Israeli segregation wall.

Simultaneously, two young men were arrested by the occupation forces on the main road leading to the town of Idhna, near the Israeli colony of Telem, which is built on stolen Palestinian lands west of Hebron.

Eyewitnesses reported that an Israeli army unit stationed at the main street near the colony stopped a young man’s vehicle, arrested him after assaulting him, and fired live ammunition at the vehicle, causing damage to it. When one of his relatives arrived to inquire about him, he was also arrested.
