JERUSALEM, Tuesday, August 04, 2020 (WAFA) – The Israeli Magistrate Court in Jerusalem today ordered release of the Palestinian Authority’s Jerusalem governor, Adnan Ghaith, and its intelligence chief, Jihad al-Faqih, after holding them since July 19, according to local sources.

Their release was however conditioned on not getting in touch with each other or Fatah and Palestinian leaders and officials in the West Bank.

The Israeli occupation authorities detained Ghaith 17 times since he was appointed governor of Jerusalem two years ago.
