BETHLEHEM (Ma'an) -- Palestinian Authority security forces on Monday detained five Islamic Jihad members in the northern West Bank, the party said,
Islamic Jihad said in a statement that forces from the Fatah-led PA detained Khaled Abu Zeina from his home in Jenin even though he fell unconscious during the raid. Abu Zeina suffers from heart disease and high blood pressure, the movement said.
PA forces also surrounded the Jenin home of Bassam al-Saadim, who is detained in Israel, and arrested his three sons Izz ad-Din, 25, Fathi, 18, and Yahia, 16, as well as his brother Ahmad, Islamic Jihad said.
In Burqin village, near Nablus, PA forces raided the home of Ahmad al-Saadi but he was not at home, the Islamist party said.
Islamic Jihad demanded the immediate release of all its members and held PA security forces responsible for the Abu Zeina's life.
