Israeli military imposes siege around Nablus

Israeli occupation forces imposed a siege tonight on the occupied West Bank province of Nablus, blocking access of Palestinian vehicles through many roads leading to the city and many of the neighboring towns and villages.

Local sources told WAFA that the Israeli occupation forces are still imposing a closure on the checkpoints of Sarra, Huwara, Awarta, al-Muraba’a, Deir Sharaf and Za’tara.

Earlier today, Israeli media reports claimed that two Israeli soldiers were injured in a drive-by shooting in the town of Huwwara, south of Nablus.

Meantime, a Palestinian man was savagely assaulted by Israeli occupation soldiers in Huwwara. The man, who had a fracture in the leg as a result of the attack, was moved to a nearby hospital for medical treatment.
