Israel’s Ofer military court on Monday decided to delay the trial of the Palestinian journalist Ali Dar Ali34 until 4th September.
This is the second time that the Israeli occupation authorities have extended Dar Ali’s detention after he was kidnapped from his home last Wednesday.
The Israeli occupation forces at dawn Wednesday arrested Dar Ali who works as a correspondent for Palestine TV channel from his house in Burham village northwest of Ramallah over “incitement” on social media networks.
In another context Ofer court on Sunday decided to renew the detention of the director of al-Quds TV channel in the West Bank Alaa al-Rimawi after the Israeli Intelligence Service objected to a court ruling to release him on bail.
There are over 20 Palestinian journalists languishing in Israeli lock-ups some of whom are sentenced to years in jail while others are held without charge or trial.
