Members of the Student Council and representatives of some student blocs have been organizing a sit-in in front of the university administration building on the old campus for 26 days, to collect several demands related to facilitations in paying university tuition and other administrative and academic facilities, taking into account the current circumstances.

At dawn on Monday, Israeli forces stormed the old campus of An-Najah National University in the city of Nablus in the occupied West Bank, and arrested a number of students protesting inside, including the head of the Student Union Council.

The occupation forces stormed the city of Nablus from several fronts, surrounded the old campus of An-Najah University and deployed snipers on neighboring buildings, before storming the campus with their soldiers and vehicles.

The occupation forces carried out searches inside the university campus buildings and on their roofs, according to video clips circulated on social media.

The Student Council confirmed in a brief statement that the Israeli forces arrested all students protesting within the university walls, including the Chairman of the Student Union Council, Muhammad Salama.

It was not clear how many students the occupation arrested from inside the university campus, while local sources confirmed the presence of about 20 students inside the campus before it was stormed.

It is noteworthy that this is the first time that the occupation forces have stormed the Al-Najah University campus in decades.
