Arresting six Jerusalemites after the stabbing of two settlers in the area of Jaffa Gate
The Israeli forces were deployed in the Old City of Jerusalem after two settlers were stabbed (one in the stomach and one in his neck) in the area of Jaffa Gate; note that the injury of one of them was described as moderate. The Israeli forces raided the neighborhoods of the Old City of Jerusalem and several houses under the pretext of looking for the young men who carried out the attack. They arrested several young men and children and checked the IDs of many others while they were walking the streets of the Old City. Wadi Hilweh Information Center was informed by Al-Dameer organization lawyer, Mohammad Mahmoud, that the forces arrested the 15-year old Rashid Risheq, 16-year old Naser Shawish and the 17-year old Fadi Salaymeh. They also arrested Hussam Alami when he was exiting through Lions Gate and assaulted and severely beat him. The forces also arrested Abood Haddad while he was near Herod’s Gate and assaulted him and then released him after he was detained in Salah Eddin police station for several hours. Sources said that the forces also arrested Badawi Abu Asab.
