Israeli forces seize Palestinian publications from bookshop, arrest owners in Jerusalem

Israeli forces detained the owners of the Scientific Library, Mahmoud and Ahmed Mona, and seized books during a raid on Salah al-Din Street in Jerusalem, according to the Wafa news agency.

Local sources said that the brothers were arrested on charges of disturbing public order by selling inflammatory books, and seized the books related to Palestine.

A week earlier, Israeli forces had closed the Jerusalem Library in the Khan al-Zeit market in the Old City and detained its owner, Hisham al-Akramawi, on similar charges.
