The Palestinian Ma'an news agency reported that the Israeli military arrested its editor-in-chief, Dr. Nasser Laham, on Monday morning at his home in the West Bank.
Laham also manages the West Bank offices of Al-Mayadeen, a Lebanese channel affiliated with Hezbollah.
According to Ma'an, he was arrested overnight by Israeli forces at his home in the village of Al-Duha, near Bethlehem, and the troops caused damage to the house during the arrest.
It was also reported that he is expected to be brought before the Ofer military court on Thursday for a hearing on the extension of his detention. The Israeli military has not yet responded on the matter.
This past May, the Israeli military arrested Palestinian journalist Ali Samoudi at his family's home in Jenin. Samoudi, 58, is a veteran reporter employed by the Al-Quds newspaper and has also worked for various international media outlets over the years.
He was a witness to the 2022 killing of Al Jazeera correspondent Shireen Abu Akleh in Jenin and was himself wounded that same day.
