الاحتلال یعتقل 17 مواطنا من الضفة بینهم وزیر شؤون القدس وأطفالhttps:\/\/t.co\/VnikiL0SEN<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/LdA15FoDf1<\/a><\/p>\r\n— Wafa News Agency (@WAFA_PS) September 25, 2019<\/a><\/blockquote>\r\n\r\n

Israeli police spokesman Micky Rosenfled said Hadami was detained on charges of allegedly breaking a law prohibiting political activity in Jerusalem al-Quds by the Palestinian Authority, which is based in the occupied central West Bank city of Ramallah, located 10 kilometers (6 miles) north of Jerusalem al-Quds.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n\r\n

The Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) condemned the arrest, describing it part of the Israeli regime’s plans to Judaize Jerusalem al-Quds.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n\r\n

Adnan al-Husseini, member of PLO Executive Committee, said the Tel Aviv regime's continued arrests of Palestinian figures in Jerusalem al-Quds is unjustified and part of “violations against civil.”<\/p>\r\n\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n\r\n

Additionally, the Palestinian government spokesman Ibrahim Melhem said Israel's actions “are an extension for its policy of targeting, harming and Judaizing the holy city.”<\/p>\r\n\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n\r\n

Israeli forces also summoned the Palestinian Authority's governor of Jerusalem al-Quds, Adnan Ghaith, to appear for questioning as part of an unspecified investigation.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

 \r\n

Because Ghaith was not home at the time, Israeli authorities presented his family with the summons and asked his son to appear before Israeli intelligence for questioning.<\/p>\r\n<\/p>\r\n\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n\r\n

Previously, Hadami was arrested in late June by Israeli police and questioned over his “activities in Jerusalem” al-Quds.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n\r\n

Ghaith had been arrested last October and questioned on suspicion of being involved in an abduction case involving a Jerusalem resident.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n\r\n

Jerusalem al-Quds remains at the core of the Israeli–Palestinian conflict, with Palestinians hoping that the eastern part of the city would eventually serve as the capital of a future independent Palestinian state.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

Israel occupied the West Bank in the 1967 Six-Day War, in a move never recognized by the international community.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n\r\n

Israeli forces also arrested four Palestinians, including a 41-year-old female teacher, her mother and two minors aged 13 and 15, in the southern West Bank city of al-Khalil (Hebron) located 30 kilometers (19 miles) south of Jerusalem al-Quds.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n\r\n

Israel has arrested some 16,500 Palestinian children since the outbreak of the Second Intifada (uprising) in late-2000, a study says.<\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n

A Palestinian was detained in Birzeit town north of Ramallah after Israeli soldiers raided his student residence.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n\r\n

Israeli forces detained three people in Nablus, and an 18-year-old teenager in the northern West Bank city of Jenin.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n\r\n

A 14-year-old minor was detained in Bethlehem, while two minors were arrested in Qalqilya. A man was detained in Ariha (Jericho) as well.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n\r\n

More than 7,000 Palestinians are reportedly held at Israeli jails. Hundreds of the inmates have apparently been incarcerated under the practice of administrative detention, a policy under which Palestinian inmates are kept in Israeli detention facilities without trial or charge.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n\r\n

Some Palestinian prisoners have been held in administrative detention for up to eleven years.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

Palestinian inmates regularly stage hunger strikes in protest at the administrative detention policy and their harsh prison conditions in Israeli jails.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
