The Israeli occupation forces today seized a Palestinian house in the town of Zeita, north of the northern West Bank city of Tulkarm, and turned it into a military outpost. Sources close to the family told WAFA that the occupation forces stormed the three-story house at midnight last night, forced the 14 members of the family to stay in one apartment, and seized the apartment keys and mobile phones. The soldiers informed the family, verbally and without showing any official papers or orders, that they would stay in the house for three days. The family appealed to the Red Cross and humanitarian and human rights organizations to intervene urgently to get the soldiers out of their house where children, women and old people live, especially since this is not the first time that the house has been raided and members of the family arrested under the pretext of its proximity to the annexation and racial segregation wall west of the town. It is worth noting that the owner of the house, Ibrahim Abu al-Izz, was released from Israeli prisons in 2018 after spending 14 years behind bars for his resistance of the occupation, and his two sons, Mohammad and Abdel Basset Abu al-Izz, were detained three months ago.
