Israeli forces assault Palestinian citizens near Jerusalem

Israeli occupation forces Sunday evening attacked a number of citizens in the town of Hizma, north of occupied Jerusalem.

Local sources said that the occupation forces stormed the town and beat up a number of citizens, after setting up a military checkpoint at its entrance and obstructing entry or exit.

The same sources added that the occupation soldiers abuse the townspeople morning and evening, especially while students head to and return from their schools, noting that the occupation surrounded the town from three sides, after the works to build a settler-only street on its northern side began.
