Israeli forces launch massive arrest campaign against Palestinians

The move came in response to protests which broke out by residents of Sa’wat al Atrash village, who confronted the bulldozing of their lands.

More than 40 Palestinian citizens, most of them youngsters, were arrested in several villages, according to WAFA News Agency.

The Israeli occupation forces raided several villages and houses on Tuesday morning.

In recent days, hundreds of Palestinians have held protest rallies in Naqab, condemning the Israeli eviction plot under the guise of a forestation work, but the demonstrations have been met with a brutal crackdown by Israeli police units, which use rubber-coated bullets, tear gas, stun grenades, as well as skunk water to disperse protesters.
