Many see her arrest as part of the continuing attempt by Israel to target Palestinian journalists. Her cellular phone and computer were seized by Israeli soldiers and it is believed her detention is related to her work as a journalist and her defense of Sheikh Jarrah’s homes against the illegal takeover by Jewish settlers writes the Palestinian Chronicle.
