RAMALLAH, July 21 (KUNA) -- The Israeli Army arrested, Sunday, around
twenty Palestinians in Nablus City and its refugee camps.
Security sources in the city said Hamas movement MP Mona Mansour was
arrested after her house was besieged in Balatah Camp, east Nablus.
A number of businessmen, owners of currency exchange shops, and workers at
commercial establishments were also arrested, along with 8 university students
who were arrested after their dorms at Al Najah University were raided.
This is the second week of Israeli military operations in Nablus, and the
forces closed a number of commercial shops and charitable organizations
claiming they are associated with Hamas.
Meanwhile, the Israeli Army announced that it disregarded an earlier
decision to close a mall at the city, allowing the shop owners to go back to
work.(end)
