The Israeli forces have arrested at least 14 Palestinians, including two children, in the occupied West Bank, Al Jazeera reports, citing the Wafa news agency.

The report cited the Commission of Detainees and Ex-Detainees Affairs and the Prisoner’s Club saying the arrests took place in the governorates of Nablus, Ramallah, Jenin, Hebron and Tulkarem.

Israeli soldiers threatened the detainees and their families and vandalised their homes, it added.

A number of people were temporarily arrested also in the town of Beit Awwa, west of Hebron, according to Wafa.
