Mohamad is a released prisoner, who served for 4 months in Israeli prison, suffers from several diseases and needs a continuous observation.
Israeli forces also broke into the house of Jawad Jamal Awad, searched it and arrested his 15 year old son Malik.
"Two weeks ago, Israeli forces arrested Malik's brother Rabe'16," Said Awad, "Confrontations launched between Palestinians, who protested against the arrest, and Israeli soldiers who responded by shooting tear and gas bombs towards Palestinians which caused suffocation cases among protesters."
Several Palestinians who were praying at Beit Ummar grand mosque were also suffocated and an Israeli soldier was hit by stone on the head and was transferred to Karmi tzur settlement.
