Israeli troops last night forcibly evacuated several dozen Jewish squatters from the campsite they established yesterday near the West Bank Arab town of Nablus. The group, including women and children and several opposition Knesset members who had joined them was placed aboard trucks and taken to the Shneller Camp in Jerusalem. Later they were released and sent to their homes.
