-- Covered by Apache helicopters, dozens of Israeli tanks and armored personnel
carriers staged an incursion into the old town of Nablus, the West Bank,
early on Monday, March 3, paving the way for the Israeli occupation troops
to abduct more Palestinians and captured up to 15 Palestinian female school
children to use them as human shields.
-
- Making their way to school, the children were horrified
by Israeli troops, who captured them to be used as human shields in their
incursion.
-
- "My daughter is one of those captured. She went
to school early morning but never came back," a bereaved mother told
IslamOnline.
-
- The Israeli occupation soldiers occupied a number of
high-rise buildings, which were turned into barricades for the Israeli
snipers after forcing their residents out, Palestinian sources told IslamOline.
-
- The Israeli soldiers also abducted three Palestinians
from the village of Beit Aiba, west of Nablus, under the pretext that they
are active members of the Islamic resistance movement, Hamas and planning
to carry out Òattacks on Israeli targets.Ó
-
- In Qalqilia, the Israeli occupation troops demolished
the house of Palestinian activist Fathi al-Khattib, accused by Israel of
being the mastermind of the Park Hotel operation in the coastal city of
Netanya, which left 29 people killed 140 injured.
-
- For their part, Israeli military sources said the Nablus
incursion marks the end of a large-scale operation, which has been brought
to a halt due to snow and torrential rains, said the Israeli radio.
-
- The sources said the Israeli troops will continue storming
Nablus until they 'arrest wanted Palestinians' and completely destroy the
Palestinian infrastructure.
-
- A human catastrophe on a large-scale is on the making
in the Palestinian territories, in general, and in Nablus, in particular,
citing shortages of food stuff, especially, milk for children, as well
as shortage of medicines, said Palestinian medical sources.
-
- On Wednesday, February 19, the Israeli occupation troops
launched a barbaric incursion into the old town of Nablus, during which
they bulldozed flat a myriad of Palestinian houses and shops, leaving nine
people killed, dozens others critically wounded and abducting some 150
Palestinians.
-
- Earlier on Monday, eight Palestinians including a woman
and a child were killed and some 35 wounded during an Israeli incursion
into the Gaza Strip.
-
- On Sunday, March 2, the Israeli soldiers shot dead a
Palestinian man in Khan Yunis refugee camp in the south of the Gaza Strip,
and wounded some 32 others.
