Meanwhile, the IOF arrested eight Palestinian civilians in Qalqilya and five others in Al-Khalil, after having raided and searched their homes. In the same context, the IOF continue to set up their military checkpoints at the entrances to Al-Khalil and its towns, villages and camps, and close several main and secondary roads with iron gates, cement blocks and earthen mounds, which obstructed the passage and movement of Palestinians throughout the governorate.
