WEST BANK, Oct. 03 (YPA) – The Israeli occupation forces detained on Thursday dozens of Palestinian citizens at the entrance to the town of Ithna, west of Hebron.

Our correspondent stated that the occupation forces stationed at the entrance to the town, which has been closed with iron gates for more than a month, detained for a long period dozens of citizens returning to the town from their work and prevented them from passing on foot and reaching their homes.

The town’s residents are subjected to a series of collective punishment measures, daily raids, and a strict siege imposed by the occupation forces for more than a month, during which all entrances and exits to the town were closed, forcing the people to take long mountainous roads to exit or enter the town.
