Ramallah [Palestine], July 8: A Palestinian news agency on Monday said its editor-in-chief was arrested by the Israeli military in the West Bank.
The Maan agency said Israeli authorities ordered the editor, Nasser Lahham, to be detained until Thursday. The arrest took place late on Monday at Laham's home in the village of Al Doha, near Bethlehem.
The Israeli military said that a "wanted person" was arrested in Bethlehem. No information has been released on the reasons for the journalist's detention.
