Local Editor

On Monday night, six "Israeli" bulldozers rolled into the village of Qalandiya, located 10 kilometers north of al-Quds, with escort by "Israeli" troopers, and tore down three residential buildings as well as nine houses under construction there.

Violence broke out when villagers tried to stop the Zionist forces and hurled stones at them. "Israeli" forces, in return, fired rubber-coated steel bullets, tear gas canisters and stun grenades to disperse the crowd.

Palestinian sources, speaking on condition of anonymity, said at least 34 Palestinians sustained moderate injuries during the mayhem.

Meanwhile, "Israeli" military forces arrested several Palestinians during separate overnight operations across the occupied West Bank.

Local sources further said "Israeli" forces raided the town of Beit Fajjar, located eight kilometers south of Bethlehem, early on Tuesday, and broke into dozens of homes before detaining an unspecified number of Palestinians.

Elsewhere, in the al-Am'ari refugee camp, located two kilometers south of the town of al-Bireh in the central West Bank, three Palestinians were injured when Zionist forces raided a number of houses and ransacked them.

Additionally, "Israeli" forces stormed several houses in Bil'in Village, located 12 kilometers west of Ramallah, engaging in clashes with local residents. No reports of injuries and arrests were available.
