Hebron: The Israeli occupation forces launched on Sunday a campaign of arrests and raids targeting 13 Palestinians in the occupied West Bank.

According to Qatar News Agency, the occupation forces arrested seven Palestinians, including a child, from the city of Hebron, and arrested three people from west Salfit, a child and a Palestinian citizen from northwest Ramallah, and another from Balata refugee camp, after raiding and searching their homes.

In a related development, Israeli occupation forces closed the iron gate they had installed at the entrance to the village of Atara, north of Ramallah, this morning.

This arrest campaign comes as part of the escalating policy pursued by the Israeli occupation in the West Bank, which aims to terrorize Palestinians, restrict their movement, and persecute activists and freed prisoners.
