OCCUPIED JERUSALEM, (PIC)-- The Israeli occupation authorities on Friday at dawn detained Ya'qub Abu Asab, an academic and a member of the national committee against exile.
Abu Asab, who is pursuing postgraduate research in the management of institutions, was detained by Israeli occupation on several previous occasions, spending a total of nine years on aggregate in Israeli occupation jails for being a leading Islamic activist.
The Israeli occupation authorities have detained a number of Islamic leaders over the past couple of weeks, after the first phase of the prisoner-exchange which involved the release of 477 Palestinian captives.
