RAMALLAH, June 22 (Xinhuanet) -- The Israeli army continued on
Wednesday storming Palestinian towns and refugee camps in the West Bank,
Palestinian security sources reported.
The Israeli army escalation came one day after Palestinian officials said that the results of the summit meeting between Israeli Prime
Minister Ariel Sharon and Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas on Tuesday was less
than expectations.
The sources said that more than
ten Israeli military vehicles early Wednesday stormed the West Bank city of
Nablus where the soldiers conducted house-to-house search in the area of Jabal
Al-Shamali village.
Witnesses said that the soldiers
stormed houses, and horrified sleeping residents, mainly children, adding that
the soldiers arrested a 15-year-old Palestinian teen called Fathi Al-Aish.
They added that severe exchange of fire erupted
between the Israeli solders and the militants, but no casualties were reported.
Meanwhile, nine Israeli military jeeps stormed the nearby
Balata refugee camp and stationed in several areas where they also clashed with
Palestinian militants, according to witnesses.
They
added that an old Palestinian woman was slightly wounded during the Israeli
attack on the refugee camp. Enditem |
