Palestine-Israel, Military, 8/14/2002

The Israeli forces on Tuesday bombarded two houses for two Palestinian families one is in al-Zahereyah near Hebron and the second is in Doha near Bethlehem. The destruction of the two houses was made without permitting the inhabitants of the two houses from taking out their personal belonging.

The Israeli army admitted of bombarding 21 houses for families of Palestinian resistance men and others killed in "suicide operations" since July.

The Israeli forces broke into one building in Jenin under the pretext of having weapons and ammunition inside it, while six Palestinians were arrested in Beit Dajin in the West Bank. All of the arrested men are relatives of Kamil Abu Hneish and Fadi Hanani of Ali Abu Mustafa groups of the People's Front for the Liberation of Palestine.

The Israeli forces also arrested other 6 Palestinian from the People's Front near Beit Fourik, which adjoins Nablus after three Palestinians were expelled from the West Bank to Gaza under the pretext of providing support to their relatives among those who carried out attack operations against Israel.

The Palestinians retaliated by intensive fire against an Israeli position in Ghoushe Katieve settlement in Gaza. The Palestinians also opened fire at an Israeli patrol near Toubas town in Nablus and detonated an explosive in another Israeli patrol near Toulkarem.

Meantime, number of the Israelis killed in the explosion that took place recently at the Hebrew university in Jerusalem increased to 9 after one Israeli wounded under medical treatment died.
