DEMOLITION, FIELD INTERROGATIONS REPORTED IN JENIN IOF ASSAULTS

Jenin, 10 Jumadil Akhir 1436/30 March 2015 (MINA) – The Israeli occupation forces (IOF) on Sunday stormed a chain of agricultural stocks under construction in Jenin’s town of Ramana and expelled all the workers who were inside the building.

Local sources said the IOF soldiers deployed at the adjacent Salem military camp have been staking out the building moments before they broke into the area and threatened to demolish the storehouse allegedly under a military command, The Palestinian Information Center (PIC) quoted by Mi’raj Islamic News Agency (MINA) as reporting.

The IOF soldiers turned down the appeals of the storeowner, Ghassen al-Akr, who said he has been doing his work on legal grounds.

The IOF further stormed southern Jenin and interrogated Palestinian passers-by.

Locals said the IOF troops cordoned off Yabad town and pitched a makeshift military checkpoint at its main entrance, where a number of Palestinian vehicles were stopped and searched.

Scores of Palestinians were subjected to exhaustive field interrogation in al-Aja town moments after a flock of nine army jeeps raided the area and stationed at its center.(T/P008/R03)
