| Ma'an – Fatah's Al-Aqsa Brigades on Tuesday accused the Palestinian police affiliated to the de facto government based in the Gaza Strip of apprehending one of their leaders, Usama Abu 'Amsha, in the Beit Hanoun area of the northern Gaza Strip. They demanded the de facto government give directives to its security services to release Abu 'Amsha who has survived a number of Israeli assassination attempts. The Al-Aqsa Brigades also reiterated their adherence to Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas' directives regarding the ceasefire for the sake of Palestinian higher interests. They also called on all Palestinian factions to stop what they called 'arbitrary political apprehension.' For its part, de facto government's interior ministry denied that its police arrested Abu 'Amsha, according to spokesperson Eyhab Abu Al-Ghusein. |
