Israel seizes top Hamas leader in West Bank
Sat Jun 23, 2007 7:20AM EDT

RAMALLAH, West Bank (Reuters) - Israeli troops seized a top
Hamas militant in the occupied West Bank on Saturday, Israeli
military and Palestinian security sources said.

Saleh al-Aruri, who officials said founded Hamas's Qassam Brigades
armed wing in the West Bank, was captured by Israeli forces in a
village north of Ramallah.

Hamas denounced Aruri's arrest as proof of collusion between Israel
and President Mahmoud Abbas's forces who were routed by Hamas
in Gaza on June 14.
