RAMALLAH, May 20 (KUNA) -- The Israeli forces today arrested a wounded child, Mohammad Al-Tamimi, 15, from Nabi Saleh village north of Ramallah, the West Bank, eyewitnesses said.
The witnesses said reporters Al-Tamimi was arrested at the entrance of the village.
Al-Tamimi was arrested for few days months ago but was later released. Since then he was waiting for a surgery to repair his skull, which suffered damage caused by a bullet during clashes with Israeli forces in the village.
The families in the village have been staging peaceful demonstrations for years, protesting the Israeli land seizure and Jewish settlements.
The Israeli forces are targeting young children for alleged involvement in the popular resistance.
A Palestinian girl, Ahad Al-Tamimi was arrested by the Israeli Forces months ago and sentenced to eight years in prison for slapping an Israeli soldier when the soldiers attempted to enter her home after Mohammad was injured. (end)
