Mona, who works for Snd News Agency, said that Israeli soldiers broke open his house’s door, wreaked havoc on the furniture during their search, and physically assaulted him, his pregnant wife and his children, Hamza (9 years) and Abdul-Rahman (5 years).

He added that the soldiers rampaged through the house before an officer questioned him about his media work and his coverage of recent events in the West Bank.
