Jerusalem - Ma'an - The Israeli occupation forces arrested a number of Palestinian youths from the town of Beit Hanina, north of Jerusalem, tonight, on the pretext of "entering Jerusalem illegally." Eyewitnesses said that the occupation forces stopped a minibus in the town of Beit Hanina in Jerusalem, and checked the identities of the young men inside it. It turned out that they were carrying 'West Bank IDs.' They forced them to get out of the bus and sit on the ground, then tied their hands and forced them to lie on the side of the road, and assaulted them by pushing and beating them. Witnesses added that the number of detainees reached 20 young men. For a year, the occupation authorities have been pursuing workers and their employers in the city of Jerusalem under the pretext of 'illegal entry,' and arrests are recorded on a weekly basis.
