Hamas: PA seizes four journalists in Tulkarem
Ma'an The Palestinian Authority arrested four journalists in the West Bank City of Tulkarem on Tuesday, the Hamas movement said.
According to Hamas, the detainees included the head of Al-Aqsa television in the West Bank, Muhammad Shtewi, Al-Aqsa correspondent Tariq Shahab, Palestine newspaper journalist Salim Tayeh, and another journalist named Fareed As Sayed.
The Fatah-controlled Palestinian Authority shut down the Hamas-affiliated Al-Aqsa satellite channel in the West Bank after Hamas took control of the Gaza Strip in June.
