Archivist Notes On This Video

A Palestinian child and his father, Fadel Abu Alya, were detained by the Israeli occupation forces after the occupation declared the village of Al-Mughayir, northeast of Ramallah, a closed military zone for 48 hours.

Occupation soldiers closed the village’s only entrance, cutting off residents from leaving or returning. A group of soldiers then seized a home in the village, forcibly evacuating its residents and turning it into a military outpost. Meanwhile, an occupation military bulldozer stormed the village center as forces tightened their control over the area.

Israeli occupation troops also distributed threatening leaflets, claiming residents were “obstructing security” or “cooperating with hostile parties.”
