RAMALLAH, (PIC)-- Israeli occupation forces (IOF) rounded up ten Palestinian citizens in the West Bank at dawn Monday during raids that witnessed storming of their homes.
The Israeli radio said that the arrests took place n Ramallah and Bethlehem districts, noting that the IOF troops broke into houses in both districts before taking away the ten citizens.
In a separate incident, an IOF spokesman announced that military sappers dismantled 17 explosive devices of different sizes on Sunday night, adding that they were delivered by the PA militias after finding them in Tulkarem.
Meanwhile, inhabitants of Bardala village, in the northern Jordan Valley, called on Sunday for urgent moves to re-supply their village with water after it was cut off by the Israeli occupation authority (IOA).
The inhabitants, who staged a sit-in on their land, said that the water interruption would wipe out farming activity in their village.
The Israeli water company Mekorot claimed that the villagers in Bardala were robbing water while in fact it was the IOA that confiscated the village's water well, which was used by the farmers to irrigate their farms.
The IOA installed pumps at that well after seizing it and deprived farmers of irrigating their land and controlled quantities of water to be supplied to them.
