The Israeli army yesterday arrested 11 Palestinians, including a police officer, after raiding and ransacking their homes in the occupied West Bank and East Jerusalem.
The Israeli army said in a statement that its soldiers had arrested a number of Palestinians in the West Bank and referred them for investigation for “participating in popular resistance actions” against Israeli occupation forces and illegal settlers.
