More injuries in West Bank’s Am’ari refugee camp

Wafa now reports that three Palestinians were injured. The Palestine Red Crescent Society was quoted by Wafa as saying its crews treated a young man who was shot in the foot, along with two others, one of whom was run over by a military vehicle, and the other was assaulted.

Israeli forces conducted a large-scale arrest campaign in the camp, arresting mostly Palestinians from the Gaza Strip and arresting Palestine TV driver Shadi Kifaya, Wafa said. Witnesses said Israeli forces brought the detainee Firas Jaber to the camp while he was handcuffed and used him as a human shield.

Israeli forces destroy park near Bethlehem

Israeli forces have demolished a park in the town of Nahalin, west of Bethlehem. A resident said the Israeli army broke into the town, specifically the Khallet al-Daliya area to the south, and began demolishing a park containing a swimming pool, restaurant, cafe and other facilities under the pretext that they were built without a permit, the Wafa news agency reported.

The report also said Israeli forces closed the area and prevented the owner of the park from approaching and removing its contents while firing tear gas and sound bombs at any person who tried to approach the demolition site.

Three weeks ago, Israeli forces demolished three houses and three agricultural facilities in Nahalin in the Qarnat al-Damas area.
