IOF soldiers arrest Hamas leader and his son

Israeli occupation forces (IOF) arrested Hamas leader Husam Harb and his eldest son Hassan after storming their home in Eskaka village in Salfit province.

Family members told the PIC reporter that IOF soldiers and undercover agents savagely broke into their home without prior notice before dawn Friday and searched it thoroughly.

They said that the soldiers headed to Husam’s bedroom and pushed him out of his bed onto the floor and sabotaged belongings in their barbaric search.

Harb, 52, and his son were taken blindfolded and handcuffed to an unknown location, they said.

Harb is a notable figure in Salfit and had served more than eight years in Israeli jails most of them in administrative detention, without charge. His sons were repeatedly detained by the PA security apparatuses.
