On Wednesday, hundreds of Israeli occupation troops, backed by armored personnel carriers, stormed downtown Nablus in the northern West Bank, destroying homes and rounding up scores of Palestinians.
Eyewitnesses said the large Israeli occupation force raided the city around midnight Tuesday amid intensive shooting. The troops reportedly raided many homes, arresting as many as 25 people the Israeli media said were "fugitives."
However, a Nablus journalist, Amin Abu Warda, told PIC that none of the detainees was a fugitive.
