Israeli occupation soldiers invaded early Tuesday morning the village of Bil’in, near the central West Bank city of Ramallah, and broke into the home of a 16-year-old youth in order to kidnap him.

The youth, Khalil Ibrahim, was not at home and the soldiers presented his family with a military order demanding Ibrahim to head to a security center for interrogation.

The soldiers said that Ibrahim would be arrested if he fails to show up at the security center where he will likely be arrested.

Two months ago, Ibrahim was released from an Israeli detention center after spending one month in detention for his involvement in nonviolent protest against the Wall and settlements.

The Israeli occupation army previously arrested several children and leaders of Bil’in’s Popular Committee Against the Wall.
