Media sources in Ramallah said the soldiers invaded villages in the western part of the governorate, before imposing a strict siege on Kafr Ni’ma and Bil’in.

They added that the soldiers stormed and ransacked homes, before abducting Mahdi Abu Rahma and Tareq Abu Rahma, from Bil’in, in addition to Jaber Abdo from Kafr Ni’ma.

The soldiers also fired small “Energia” rockets into the home of Mahdi Abu Rahma, in Bil’in, causing fire and damage to parts of his property, and furniture.

Palestinian photojournalist Haitham Khatib, from Bil’in, said that the soldiers surrounded his home, and shot him with a rubber-coated steel bullet as he approached his property.

On his Facebook page, Khatib said:

At 3AM this morning, an Israeli civilian marked bus, leading the way for military vehicles, entered my home village of Bil’in. People immediately began exiting their homes to find out what was going on.

I got into my car and pursued the military vehicles, to the neighboring village of Kufr Ni’ma, were the soldiers had gone.

Following this I returned to Bil’in in my car, finding Israeli soldiers surrounding my home and all over our streets. Dressed in my press vest and armed with only a camera, I attempted to get closer.

Israeli soldiers then shot me in my left leg, with a rubber coated steel bullet, they continued to fire at me several times as I quickly hid behind a wall.

After this I went to visit my neighbor, Mahdi Abu Rahma, discovering that he had been arrested after the Israelis had fired an electronic rocket-type munition at the house. Mahdi’s windows were shattered and his door damaged. His small children were in the home when this munition was fired by the soldiers.

I later discovered that Tareq Abu Rahma, had also been arrested.

The Israelis were shooting live ammunition, tear gas, sound grenades as well as other munitions. They continued firing as they left.

There was absolutely no explanation for what they did and we are still waiting for news on how many may have been arrested in Kafr Ni’ma.

Palestinian boat catches fire as Israeli navy attacks fishermen
Picture
A Palestinian fishing boat was set on fire, on Thursday, after Israeli naval forces repeatedly fired towards it off of the coast in the northern besieged Gaza Strip.

Head of the Palestinian Fishermen Union in Gaza, Zakariya Bakr, said that Israeli naval forces opened fire towards Palestinian fishing boats located three nautical miles off of the northern coast of Gaza and ignite a fire in one of them.

Bakr confirmed that two Palestinian fishermen were present on the boat as it caught on fire due to repeated gunfire. He identified them as Mahmoud Hamoud Ishkantana and Muhammad Mahmoud Ishkantana.

The two fishermen were detained by Israeli naval forces and taken to an unknown location.

As part of Israel's blockade of the coastal enclave since 2007, the Israeli army, citing security concerns, requires Palestinian fishermen to work within a limited "designated fishing zone," the exact limits of which are decided by the Israeli authorities and have historically fluctuated.

The Israeli army regularly detains and opens fire on unarmed Palestinian fishermen, shepherds, and farmers along the border areas if they approach the unilaterally declared buffer zone.

Israeli human rights group B'Tselem recently concluded that Israel's Gaza closure and "harassment of fishermen" have been "destroying Gaza's fishing sector," with 95 percent of fishermen living below the poverty line.
