QALQILIA, May 7, 2011 (WAFA) – Israeli forces Saturday arrested three Palestinians after raiding their houses in Qalqilia and Tubas, north of the West Bank, according to witnesses.
They told WAFA that Israeli forces raided Azzoun, a village east of Qalqilia, firing flares and sound bombs as they entered the village before dawn and searched homes in the area. The soldiers tampered with the houses’ contents and caused panic among women and children.
