Israel continues its policies of abductions in the occupied territories
|
RAMALLAH,
September 10 (IslamOnline & News Agencies) – With world attention
directed to the anniversary of the September 11 attacks on the United
States, Israel continued its policies in the occupied territories as
Israeli troops shot dead 2 Palestinians and injured two others in the
West Bank, Palestinian hospital sources said Tuesday, September 10.
The
shootout occurred after Israeli forces raided the office of military
information in Betunia, in the autonomous Palestinian West Bank area of
Ramallah, where their target, Riad Nayef, was working, Agence
France-Presse (AFP) reported.
Nayef
was captured during the attack and was believed to be one of the two men
injured.
The
injured were evacuated by the Israeli forces while the body of the
unnamed fatality, a man in his twenties, was handed over to the
Palestinians.
According
to witnesses, the Israeli forces also abducted several people.
An
Israeli army spokesman confirmed that troops had killed what he called a
“terrorist” and injured two others who were captured in Betunia.
The
latest death brings the toll from two years of unrest to 2,493, mostly
Palestinians.
Another
five Palestinians were abducted by the Israeli army Tuesday overnight in
the West Bank, military sources said.
Among
them was a Nablus leader of Palestinian President Yasser Arafat’s
Fatah group, Palestinian security sources said.
Another
one was the local leader of the radical Hamas group in the town of
Dahariyeh, near the southern city of Hebron, Israeli public radio said.
The
latest Israeli aggression came a day after Arafat condemned attacks on
Israeli civilians in his parliament speech on Monday, September 9.
In
a speech criticized by Israel, the United States, Islamic resistance
factions and even some Palestinian lawmakers, Arafat demanded a return
to talks with Israel saying there had been “enough conflict, enough
bloodshed”.
“The
Palestinian people stand today firmly against all kinds of terrorism,
whether it is by states, groups or individuals,” he told the
Palestinian parliament, which met for the first time since May 15,
although Gaza members, many of them banned by Israel from traveling to
Ramallah, took part by video link-up.
