> The situation in Ramallah is currently one of brutal occupation and
> widespread destruction.
>
> In the afternoon Apache helicopters shot indiscriminately in wide-range
> areas without any apparent reason and several buildings have been
bombarded
> and badly damaged.
>
> The Israeli army has surrounded two hospitals preventing ambulances and
> medical workers to reach the hospitals in order to give life-saving
medical
> treatment. Troops are also obstructing delaying the movement of ambulances
> within the city with severe consequences for the sick and injured.
>
> There is also an increasing shortage of medicine, milk, food and other
> supplies as the whole community was unprepared for this invasion. The
strict
> curfew makes it impossible for people to obtain the necessary supplies.

> Eyewitnesses in Ramallah report that the Israeli army has conducted
> collective arrests of large numbers of young men, handcuffing and taking
> them into buildings for interrogation.
