Western Ramallah town hit again early Saturday, two more arrests

29.08.09 - 12:08

Bil’in / PNN - Early this morning Israeli forces again invaded Bil’in Village. The frequent night raids are the stuff of daytime protests that bring international supporters to Palestinian activists who are normally rallying against the Wall and settlements.

Around 3:30 am Saturday several military jeeps entered the western Ramallah town through the gate in the Wall, and from the neighboring villages of Kofr Ni’ma and Saffa. Israeli forces broke into two homes, arresting two Palestinians.

Eyewitnesses describe at least 40 soldiers raiding the houses simultaneously. Ashraf Mohammad Al Khatib, 29, was arrested, as was 24 year old Hamru Hisham Burnat.

Cameraman Haitham Al Khatib, was on the scene as Israeli soldiers broke into his home. He began filming the arrest of his brother, but was repeatedly forcibly moved and hit. Soldiers declared the Al Khatib home a “closed military zone”, and threatened him with arrest unless he stopped filming.

No military order stating tat the home was a military zone was produced.

The two men were put into military jeeps that had parked in front of the village mosque before being driven out through the Wall.
