Three Israeli suspects were arrested this afternoon on suspicion of participating in last week's violent unrest in the Palestinian town of Huwara south of Nablus. According to a Channel 12 flash report, the suspects are accused of throwing stones and setting fires during the events, which left local residents wounded. The specific affiliations of the suspects and further details on the charges have not yet been released. The arrest follows a series of security-force operations in Judea and Samaria this week targeting individuals involved in arson and violence, as The Zioneer reported earlier on Monday in separate incidents near the Oferit base and in the villages of Deir Dibwan and Burqa.
