Ramallah, June 3 (RHC)-- The Wafa news agency says that Israeli forces detained one of its journalists, Rasha Hirzallah, after summoning her to a detention centre in Ariel, an illegal Israeli settlement in the occupied West Bank, on Sunday night.

Hirzallah went to the detention centre with a lawyer after being summoned by Israeli intelligence, who told her she would be held for 72 hours, Wafa said. She was not told why she was being detained or what charges, if any, she was facing, Wafa added.

There are 49 Palestinian journalists in Israeli detention, according to the Palestinian Prisoner Society.

At least 102 Palestinian journalists and media workers have been killed since the Israel-Gaza war began in October, according to the Committee to Protest Journalists (CPJ).
