Inhuman israel arrests sick Palestinian man at Erez crossing

Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF) arrested on Tuesday a sick Palestinian man at Erez border crossing with Gaza while he was travelling for treatment in Occupied Jerusalem.

Human rights sources told the PIC reporter that the IOF soldiers rounded up a 25-year-old man called Yahya al-Tarabin who is suffering from severe backache.

Tarabin was arrested and transferred to Ashkelon prison despite possessing a medical transfer letter to al-Makassed Hospital in Occupied Jerusalem, the sources added.

The Israeli forces usually use the Erez crossing as a trap to arrest and blackmail Palestinians including patients.
