NABLUS- January 29, 2018 (WAFA) - Clashes erupted on Sunday night in Beit Furik, to the east of Nablus, following an Israeli army raid of the village, according to Palestinian security sources.

One person identified as Hamadeh Hanani, 42, was injured in the leg from shrapnel and was transferred to Rafidia hospital in Nablus, said the sources.

Soldiers raided the village after allegedly arresting a Palestinian believed to be from Beit Furik near the illegal settlement of Itamar. The army claimed the Palestinian was wearing army uniform. Another one got away, said the army.

Meanwhile, soldiers detained for several hours seven Palestinians, two of them 16 years of age, after raiding and searching their homes in al-Lubban al-Sharqiya village, south of Nablus, local sources said.

The army interrogated the seven at the location and then released them early Monday.
