ISRAEL CONDUCTS W. BANK RAIDS; 11 PALESTINIANS DETAINED
JERUSALEM
The Israeli army detained 11 Palestinians in
overnight raids carried out across the occupied West Bank, the army said in a
Thursday statement.
According to the army, the individuals were
detained for “suspected involvement in popular terrorist activities”.
The statement did not elaborate on the nature
of these alleged “activities”.
The Israeli army carries out arrest campaigns
across the occupied West Bank -- on an almost daily basis -- on the pretext of
searching for “wanted” Palestinians.
According to Palestinian figures, roughly
5,700 Palestinians, including numerous women and children, are currently
languishing in Israeli detention facilities.
