NABLUS, (PIC)-- The Israeli occupation authority (IOA) blocked lawyers from visiting their Palestinian clients at the pretext of Jewish holidays, one of the lawyers said on Tuesday.

Ahmed Al-Tobasi, a lawyer for the Tadamun foundation for human rights, said that the Israeli administration of the Hawara detention center denied him access at the pretext that it was a Jewish holiday.

Tobasi said that the IOA blocks visits for detainees at the pretext of Jewish festivities while allowing its occupation forces to sweep various West Bank areas and arrest more detainees on the same occasion.

The ban was imposed only hours after the Israeli occupation forces rounded up Hamas MP Ahmed al-Haj and university lecturer Mustafa Al-Shinar and took them to the Hawara center.

NABLUS, (PIC)-- Israeli occupation forces (IOF) raided the home of an elderly Hamas MP in the eastern suburb of Nablus city and detained him after blasting their way into his home.

The daughter of MP Ahmed Al-Haj, 72, told the PIC reporter, that the soldiers broke their apartment’s door in a pre dawn raid on Tuesday after encircling the building and took away her father.

She held the IOF responsible for the life of her father, who was previously held by the Israeli occupation authority on ten past occasions the latest in 2008 when he was held in administrative custody, without charge, for 15 months.

The occupation troops also arrested Hamas leader and university lecturer Dr. Mustafa Al-Shinar from his home west of Nablus city at the same time.

Shinar was frequently arrested by the IOF and was released from administrative detention in late 2009.

He wrote on his facebook page last night that reconciliation would not progress as long as political arrests continued in the West Bank. Shinar was kidnapped three times by the PA security, which negatively affected his health condition. He underwent cardiac catheterization.

In the same context, the website of Hebrew daily Yediot Ahronot said that IOF soldiers rounded up 13 Palestinians in the West Bank on Tuesday.

The Israeli–Palestinian conflict is the ongoing conflict between Israelis and Palestinian. The conflict is between Jewish and Arab population living in Palestine. Within Israeli and Palestinian society, the conflict generates a wide variety of views. The roots of the conflict can be traced to the late 19th century, with a rise in national movements. The Israeli-Palestinian conflict is one of the world's longest standing conflicts. Many people feel that resolving this conflict is the key to resolving the various conflicts throughout the Middle East.

Documentary - "The Heart of Jenin" reveals about a family whose son was shot by an Israeli soldier whilst playing with a plastic gun in the refugee camp Jenin. Despite his grief his father did a courageous act and decides to donate his son‘s organs to Israeli children. Is their any end for all these conflicts and suffering of the people living there?
