 Around 50 Israeli soldiers broke their way into the home of Mohammed Al-Najjar, a leader with Islamic Jihad movement, in Al-Khalil before dawn Wednesday and took him to a detention center.

Amjad Al-Najjar, the director of the Palestinian Prisoner society in Al-Khalil and Mohammed’s brother, said that the heavily armed soldiers blasted their way into the Jihad leader’s home in Fawar refugee camp.

He said that the Israeli occupation forces (IOF) savagely destroyed all doors of the house and locked up all 20 family members inside one of the rooms and searched the house before arresting his brother.

Mohammed Al-Najjar was detained in Israeli occupation jails on eight past occasions. Mohammed, who suffers from chronic infection in his stomach, went on hunger strike a year ago while in detention to protest his administrative detention in Israeli jails, without charge or trial.
