The Israeli occupation forces today raided the headquarters of the Beit Ummar Association for Orphan Care, north of Hebron, closed some of its offices, and seized the association’s furniture and files.

The association’s director, Youssef Abu Maria, told WAFA that the occupation forces stormed the association’s headquarters in Beit Ummar, searched it, tampered with its contents, and seized all of the association’s files, in addition to electrical appliances and computers, before closing the doors of some offices with metal sheets.
