Ahed Tamimi, Palestinian Activist, Arrested by Israeli Forces in West Bank

Israeli troops have arrested Palestinian activist Ahed Tamimi in the West Bank on suspicion of inciting violence, but her mother denies the claim, stating it was based on a fake Instagram post. Tamimi gained prominence in 2017 when she slapped an Israeli soldier who raided her village, and she has been involved in protests against Israeli land seizures. Israeli authorities allege that Tamimi wrote an inciting Instagram post calling for the killing of settlers, but her mother denies that Tamimi has an Instagram account. Tamimi was previously sentenced to eight months in prison for assault.
