RAMALLAH, Feb. 26 (Xinhua) -- Palestinian sources said Monday that Israeli occupation forces arrested 10 members of the Tamimi family from Nabi Saleh village during overnight raids throughout the West Bank.

The village has been witnessing intensive night raids by Israeli army, said the village head, since the detention of the Palestinian resistance icon, 16-year-old Ahed Tamimi on Dec. 17, after a video of her slapping an Israeli soldiers who stormed her home went viral on the internet.

There are altogether 20 Palestinians arrested during the raids, including minors and an injured boy.

Among those arrested was 15-year-old Mohammad Tamimi, who was critically injured due to an Israeli gun shot in the face last December. He was still under treatment and scheduled for surgery in March.

Ahed Tamimi was arrested four days after the confrontation, and Israeli forces stormed her home again. Her mother and cousin were also arrested the next day.

Currently, Ahed Tamimi and her mother Nariman Tamimi, 42, were still in custody and undergoing military court trials.

The next hearing for Tamimi is expected in March.
