Israeli soldiers held a Palestinian journalist and an activist in the al-Shuhada Street in the southern occupied West Bank city of Hebron (Al-Khalil), on Wednesday, as they were documenting the soldiers’ violations against Palestinians.
Palestinian activist with Defenders of Human Rights, Badie Dweik, said that Jewish settlers held journalist Amer al-Shaludi, and Defenders of Human Rights activist Zeidan al-Sharabati for more than one hour.
Incredible and courageous people who document the Zionist occupation forces in Hebron. Solidarity.

Dweik added that al-Shaludi and al-Sharabati were documenting Israeli soldiers’ firing tear-gas bombs and stun grenades towards Palestinians.
Israeli soldiers had also sealed off the military checkpoint leading to the al-Shuhada Street, preventing residents from entering.
Dweik said that Israeli soldiers confiscated his camera and mobile phone.
