Israel jails Palestinian journalist for ‘incitement’

‘An Israeli military court sentenced a Palestinian journalist to 11 months in prison on Monday for alleged incitement.

Ahmad Hamad al-Betawi, an editor with Quds Net News Agency, had been awaiting trial since he was arrested last June for allegedly violating bail conditions on which he had been released from a previous arrest in February 2014.

Israeli military prosecutors had accused al-Betawi, 35, of using his work to incite against Israel’s occupation, according to a statement released by the Palestinian Prisoner Center for Studies.

The center also said that al-Betawi was charged with advocating “Palestinian nationalistic causes,” including prisoners’ rights.’
