Israeli army invaded the village of Bil'in again

27/05/2010

Today, May 27, 2010 at noon the Israeli army invaded the village of Bil’in again. A woman was heard shouting, "Soldiers are taking my sons!". A villager went to her house and saw 10 soldiers walking in the field with two of her sons they were detaining. They were Ramsy Mohammed Ali Yasseen (24 years old) and Abdullah Mohammed Ali Yasseen (17 years old). Shortly after a verbal intervention between this villager and the soldiers in the open field, they released the older brother Ramsy Mohammed Ali Yasseen, but arrested Abdullah Mohammed Ali Yasseen, blindfolded and handcuffed him and took him away to an unknown location. Their home is situated close to the Apartheid Wall and is being raided on a regular basis. A couple of months ago, another brother had been arrested and released after two weeks in prison. Simultaneously, one Jeep was seen in another part of the village at the time when all the children had finished school and were walking home.
