The Israeli occupation forces (IOF) arrested on Wednesday 15 Palestinians in the occupied West Bank.

Palestinian news agency (WAFA) said that the IOF arrested five Palestinians in Al-Khalil governorate, four Palestinians in Bethlehem governorate, and four others in the city of Qalqilya. They also arrested a mother and a child in Al-Issawiya village, northeast Occupied Jerusalem (Al-Quds), after having raided and searched their homes.

In a related context, the Israeli occupation police stormed the neighborhood of Kafr 'Aqab, north of Al-Quds, and raided many homes.

These arrests come as part of the escalating policy pursued by the Israeli occupation in the West Bank, which aims to terrorize Palestinians, restrict their movement, and persecute activists and freed prisoners.
