Ramallah, December 26 (QNA) - Israeli occupation forces arrested six Palestinians on Friday in the towns of Yatta and Beit Ummar in the Hebron Governorate of the occupied West Bank.

The Palestinian News Agency (WAFA) reported that occupation forces raided Khirbet al Rakeez and arrested an elderly man after he was assaulted by settlers.

They also arrested a woman and her child in the al Khalidiya area east of Yatta and confiscated a vehicle.

The occupation forces also raided the town of Beit Ummar and arrested three children, transferring them to an Israeli army camp in the settlement of Karmei Tzur.

These arrests are part of the escalating Israeli occupation policy in the West Bank, aimed at intimidating Palestinians, restricting their movement, and targeting activists and released prisoners. (QNA)
