NABLUS, February 19, 2025 (WAFA) – Israeli occupation forces assaulted on Wednesday evening six Palestinian citizens as they attempted to cross through the Beit Furik Israeli military checkpoint, according to local sources.
The sources stated that Israeli soldiers detained six Palestinians at the checkpoint and subjected them to brutal beatings.
This recent attack is part of a recurring pattern, as multiple Palestinians have been subjected to similar assaults at the same checkpoint over the past week alone.
Positioned at the eastern entrance to Nablus, the Beit Furik checkpoint is an enduring obstacle to the daily lives of roughly 25,000 residents of the nearby towns of Beit Furik and Beit Dajan. The checkpoint is notorious for its severe congestion, forcing Palestinians to endure prolonged delays that stretch for hours.
