Israeli occupation forces storm Al-Quds Neighborhoods, kidnap Palestinians

Israeli occupation forces stormed the At-Tur and Silwan neighborhoods in the occupied holy city of al-Quds, cracking down on the Palestinian population there, the Palestinian Maan news agency reported on Sunday.

The swoops took place, ahead of upcoming Jewish holidays, which are expected to witness a surge in violations of the al-Aqsa Mosque’s compound–Islam’s third-holiest site, which is located in al-Quds’ Old City–by illegal Zionist settlers.

According to the agency, the Zionist troops carried out raids throughout the neighborhood, kidnapping Palestinians and throwing teargas canisters at them.

In Silwan, the forces carried out a raid against Ein Al-Lawza, blocking the entrance to the area, assaulting its Palestinian residents, and similarly using teargas against them.

The Zionist occupation regime has warned it would deploy “thousands” of its police forces throughout al-Quds during the upcoming holidays, which fall on September 29 this year.
