An Israeli court yesterday extended the detention of Palestinian journalist Samah Dweik until Sunday. The same court released Nahla Seyam on condition that she does not enter Al-Aqsa Mosque for 15 days. Quds News journalist Dweik and Seyam are from the Ras Al-Amud neighbourhood in Silwan, occupied East Jerusalem.
Three Jerusalemites were also sentenced to a year in jail for throwing stones, their families reported.
The Human Rights Commission said that the three prisoners are from the Wade El-Goaz neighbourhood of occupied Jerusalem and are being held in Megiddo prison. They were arrested in September 2015.
