JERUSALEM — Israeli troops stormed a United Nations food depot in the occupied Gaza Strip today, arrested three U.N. staff members and smashed the windows of a U.N. vehicle, a witness and officials said.
An official of the U.N. Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) said two international staff members and a Palestinian employee were arrested during an army raid on a UNWRA food distribution center in the Dir al-Balah Palestinian refugee camp.
The two foreigners were released after three hours and the Gazan was expected to be freed later in the day.
