HeadlineFeb 08, 2010

In news from the occupied West Bank, Israeli security forces arrested two activists with the International Solidarity Movement on Sunday in an early morning raid. Israeli officials claimed Ariadna Jové of Spain and Bridgette Chappell of Australia had been involved in “illegal riots that interfered with Israeli security operations.” Over the past few months, Israel has arrested and detained a number of nonviolent activists in the West Bank who have taken part in the weekly protests against the Israeli separation wall.
