Israeli occupation forces raid, ransack trade union office in Ramallah

RAMALLAH, Israeli occupation forces early today raided the headquarters of a trade union in the occupied West Bank city of Ramallah, according to local sources.

They said that Israeli soldiers broke down the main door and entered the office of the General Trade Union of Workers in Services and Entrepreneurship Sector, tampering with its contents and seizing several computer hard discs and documents.

Israeli forces have recently targeted international and local human rights organizations and Palestinian civil society organizations (CSOs) in the occupied territories, closing some of them for six months under flimsy pretexts.

In the past few months, Israeli forces ransacked the premises of Defense for Children International- Palestine (DCIP), the Health Work Committees (HWC) and that of the Union of Agricultural Work Committees (UAWC), confiscating their properties and documents, and forcibly shutting down their premises for six months.
