Israeli occupation forces last night arrested five Palestinians in the West Bank province of Ramallah and in occupied Jerusalem, according to Palestinian security and local sources.

In Ramallah province, an Israeli army force stormed the town of Turmus-Ayya and arrested four Palestinians after raiding and searching their homes. Two of the detainees were reported to be brothers, identified as Abdullah and Abdul-Rahman Khatib.

Meantime, Israeli police arrested a Palestinian young man after raiding his home in the neighborhood of Ras al-Amud in occupied Jerusalem.
