The Israeli occupation authority (IOA) on Monday decided to extend the administrative detention order of Palestinian journalist Bushra al-Tawil for three months for the third time in a row.
Prisoner al-Tawil’s mother was surprised by the Israeli decision to extend her daughter’s administrative detention asserting that the IOA violated all its promises not to extend Bushra’s detention.
On the 21st of March 2022 Bushra was arrested by the Israeli occupation forces at the Za’tara checkpoint to the south of the West Bank city of Nablus.
29-year-old Bushra the only daughter of her parents was detained five times the first of which was in 2011 when she was in high school. She was sentenced to 16-month imprisonment and released after completing five months as part of the Wafa al-Ahrar swap deal.
Bushra had been held in solitary confinement in Damon prison for several days while being denied family visits. She spent three years and a half in Israeli prisons.
16 Palestinian journalists including the two females Bushra al-Tawil and university student Deena Jaradat are being held in Israeli prisons.
