Abu Ghannam was arrested in August at her house in Al-Tur neighborhood in the occupied city of Jerusalem. The Israeli forces confiscated many household and personal items during the raid.
In July 2017, her son Mohammad was killed by the Israeli forces during the wave of unrest triggered by Israel’s decision to place cameras at the entrances of Al-Aqsa Mosque. His family was not able to perform normal mourning and funeral rites because his body was buried in secret in order to thwart an Israeli plan to hold onto it indefinitely.

Meanwhile, another Israeli court has sentenced Batoul Al-Ramahi, 25, and Amna Mahmoud to 29 months and 33 months in prison respectively, the Prisoners’ Committee said in a statement. Al-Ramahi was arrested on March 12 last year, and Mahmoud was arrested on December 12, just over twelve months ago. Both women were arrested in their homes during night raids and have been held as political prisoners in Al-Damoon Prison.
