The occupation forces arrested on Thursday night two Jerusalemite minors from the neighborhood of Shu’fat and the village of Jabal Al-Mukabber.

The police said in a statement that they arrested a 16-year old child from Shu’fat north of Jerusalem under the pretext of possession of a knife.

They also arrested 16-year old Mohammad Arafat Obeidat after raiding and searching his home in the village of Jabal Al-Mukabber south of Jerusalem.

On the other hand, municipality crews along with Israeli police raided on Thursday Hosh Abu Tayeh in the neighborhood of Ein Al-Lozeh in Silwan and targeted commercial stores and the locals for no reason.

Locals added that the forces randomly fired sound grenades in the neighborhood resulting in the breakout of clashes.

The forces raided the house of Raed Abu Tayeh and assaulted his family members and then arrested his 17-year old son Khalil.

Wadi Hilweh Information Center was informed that the forces assaulted Khalil during the arrest when he was barefoot; he suffered several injuries and wounds in his back.

Abu Tayeh is a student in his senior year.

The Magistrate judge extended on Wednesday the arrest of the child Abed Barbar and Fathi Shihadeh until next Sunday.
