Mohammed Wajeeh, 21, recounts his experience to Al Jazeera from the village of Deir Abu Mesha’al where Israeli forces have detained more than 30 Palestinians overnight near Ramallah in the occupied West Bank.

“They were very barbaric in their intervention. [After forcing open the door to the house], they searched everything — they destroyed the kitchen, they went upstairs and downstairs, [searched] all the closets; they did not leave anything,” Wajeeh said.

Al Jazeera’s Nida Ibrahim said Israeli forces went from door to door arresting Palestinians, blindfolded them, tied their hands and took them to an open building on the street where they were detained for hours.

Wajeeh said they interrogated him about the number of people at his home and seized all their phones.

“They said some provoking words and then they just threw me in the middle of nowhere and it was very cold and they asked me to stay there,” he said.
