Occupied Jerusalem: Israeli forces continued on Sunday their blockade of the town of Hazma, east of Jerusalem, for the fifth consecutive day, according to local sources.
The forces also continued to block all entrances to the town with huge cement cubes, denying local Palestinians entry into and exit from the town, Palestinian News Agency (WAFA) reported.
During the past five days, Israeli troops raided several homes in the town, searched them, and took the names of many of the town’s residents.
