Local sources said that IOF at dawn today arrested four members of a band, working in weddings, from the town of Taiba in Jenin during their return from the city of Ramallah at a flying military checkpoint and transferred them to an unknown destination.
Meanwhile, Israeli troops stormed after midnight the house of Jawad Siyam, the director of Wadi al-Hilweh's Information Center in the Silwan neighborhood, in occupied Jerusalem.
The center reported in a statement that the IOF stormed the house in order to implement an arrest warrant for Siyam, for undisclosed reasons.
