OCCUPIED JERUSALEM, (PIC)-- An Israeli court on Sunday sentenced a 15-year-old Palestinian boy in occupied Jerusalem to one year imprisonment for throwing stones at Israeli occupation police.

Local sources said that the Magistrate Court in Maskobeh turned down a request by lawyer of the child Motez Al-Rajabi, from Silwan town in occupied Jerusalem, to release him on bail.

The sources said that the child's charge was throwing stones at Israeli policemen during the recent disturbances in Silwan.

Tens of Jerusalemite children have been thrown into Israeli jails in 2010 for the same charge.

NAZARETH, (PIC)-- The Israeli government decided in its weekly meeting on Sunday to extend the ban on reuniting Palestinian families divided between 1948 occupied land and the Gaza Strip.

The interior minister Eli Yishai proposed the extension of the ban for six more months, which was endorsed by the cabinet.

Yishai, for his part, said that the extension was made at the request of the security apparatuses, which claimed Palestinians were exploiting this reunion to launch "terrorist" activity.

GAZA, (PIC)-- The Israeli occupation forces (IOF) deported on Monday Mahmoud Duwaik, 30, from his hometown of Jericho in the West Bank to the Gaza Strip.

Duwaik said on arrival in Gaza that the IOF soldiers captured him while working in 1948 occupied Palestine and deported him to Gaza after finding out that he did not have a work permit.

He added that his parents lived in Jericho for 22 years but had written in their IDs that they are from Gaza.

Duwaik appealed for helping him to return to Jericho to his parents, wife and children who have been living there for more than 22 years.
