Israeli occupation forces (IOF) arrested three Palestinians in Beit Ummar village, to the north of Al-Khalil, at dawn Wednesday, local sources said.

Mohammed Awad, the spokesman for the national committee against settlement, said that the IOF soldiers stormed the village from its main and southern entrances.

He said that the soldiers thoroughly searched the homes of all three detainees before taking them away.

Awad said that the soldiers broke into the home of Ahmed Abu Mariya and searched it before delivering a summons to his son Hammad, 20, for intelligence questioning. Hammad previously served two years in Israeli occupation jails.
