Israeli troops arrested 50 Palestinians during a days-long operation at Nur Shams refugee camp, Palestinian authorities said on Sunday. The Palestinian Prisoner’s Club noted “serious and horrific attacks” that included using “defenceless citizens as human shields and hostages, severely beating them, and torture operations” in a statement quoted by the official Wafa news agency. Wounded Palestinians were among those detained, it said, adding that the majority of Palestinians were later released by the army.
