Zionist regime arrests liberated prisoner at Qalandia roadblock

Israeli occupation forces (IOF) arrested a Palestinian young man at Qalandia roadblock, south of Ramallah, on Monday night after claiming he had a knife in his possession.

Israeli police spokeswoman Luba Al-Sumari claimed that the young man, a liberated prisoner, was planning to attack IOF soldiers with the knife.

Sumari claimed that the youth confessed to planning an attack on soldiers, adding that he was under further investigation at the Jerusalem district police.

She said that the 26-year-old detainee was previously convicted in shooting at an Israeli settlement in the West Bank and was released after three years of incarceration in the Shalit prisoners’ exchange deal.
