The prosecution requested to extend the arrest of Mouawya until completing the legal procedures against him. Targeting, assaulting and arresting On the other hand, the occupation police extended the arrest of two minors from the village of Jabal Al-Mukabber that were arrested after leaving their schools in the village.
