SALFIT, Wednesday, January 15, 2020 (WAFA) – Israeli forces today overnight stormed a blacksmith shop in the town of Kafr Ad-Dik, located to the southwest of the occupied West Bank city of Salfit.

Mayor of Kafr Ad-Dik Ibrahim al-Issa told WAFA that Israeli forces ransacked the blacksmith shop and seized its contents “under false pretexts”, a reference to the Israeli military claim that it was used for manufacturing weapons.

He noted that the blacksmith shop was sealed shut one year ago.

Meanwhile, Israeli troops last night seized a bulldozer in the town of Salem, located to the east of Nablus city.

Ghassan Daghlas, who monitors settlements in the northern West Bank, told WAFA that the soldiers seized the bulldozer, which belonged to Ibrahim Issa, as it was opening a road in the area of Ras al-Ain, to the north of the town.
