An undercover Israeli police force last night kidnapped three Palestinian young men in the neighbourhood of al-Tour in occupied Jerusalem, according to local sources.

Israeli police officers dressed in civilian clothes were assaulting Rami Salaheddine, 21, Lo’ai Kiswani, 22, and Abdullah Hadra, 25, and threatening them at gunpoint, before they kidnapped them. The three had their hands tied to the back and taken to an unknown destination by the attacking force.

Clashes erupted with the Israeli occupation forces in al-Tour in the aftermath of the raid.
