West Bank raids: Palestinian journalist arrested by Israeli forces in Ramallah

Israeli forces have arrested Rula Hassanein, a Palestinian journalist, from her home in the occupied West Bank city of Ramallah, and confiscated her laptop and phone. Hassanein’s arrest takes the number of journalists detained in the occupied territory since October 7 to about 60. At least 40 of them remain in jail, and more than half are detained without charges. Hassanein’s family told local media that she had debated whether to take her nine-month-old baby with her as she was still breastfeeding, but ultimately decided not to. Israeli forces continued to carry out raids across the occupied West Bank, including Nablus, Qalqilya, Bethlehem, Hebron and Jenin. Al Jazeera Laura Khan reports Ramallah, Occupied West Bank.
