Palestinian security forces have arrested one of the most prominent human rights activists in the occupied territories after he criticised the arrest of a Palestinian journalist in a Facebook post.
Issa Amro, who lives in the southern West Bank city of Hebron, is the highest profile victim of a growing campaign by #Mahmoud_Abbas, the leader of the Palestinian Authority, against journalists and dissent on social media.
Amro is the founder of Youth Against the Settlements, which has long-documented alleged abuses by the Israeli military and settlers in Hebron. He was already facing charges in an Israeli military court for his activism.
