NABLUS, (PIC)-- Hundreds of Jewish settlers stormed the Nabi Yusuf tomb east of Nablus before dawn Thursday under heavy Israeli troop protection and offered rituals.

Eyewitnesses said that the settlers arrived in 16 buses and left after dawn after clashing with Palestinian youths from nearby Askar and Balata refugee camps.

The young men closed roads in the area, burnt tires, and threw stones at the intruders while the Israeli occupation forces fired tear gas and stun grenades at the youth.

RAMALLAH, (PIC)-- Israeli police forces arrested 150 Palestinian workers in cultivated lands in the Galilee north of Palestine occupied in 1948 on Thursday morning.

The Israeli radio claimed that the workers were working in the fields without permit.

The Israeli security forces daily storm areas where those workers usually work, and detain them after beating them up then expel them back to the West Bank after imposing heavy fines on them.
