An Israeli court imposed on Friday house arrest on two children from al-Issawiya village in the center of occupied Jerusalem.
Human rights sources said that the Israeli court imposed house arrest on Mohammed Mustafa, 16, and Khaled Abu Ghoush, 17, in addition to imposing a bail as a condition for their release.
House arrest is a punishment by the Israeli occupation authorities against Palestinian children locking them into their houses until the court's verdict is issued. The days spent under house arrest are not counted in any sentence passed later by the court. Such punishments deny children their rights to study and play and cause them psychological and behavioral complications.

The Shin Bet, Israel’s internal intelligence agency, has claimed its arrest of 20 members of a new Hamas-affiliated cell in Nablus where they were planning to launch attacks against Israelis in Jerusalem, the West Bank, and Haifa.
According to different Israeli news websites, the Shin Bet arrested members of the cell in a months-long "sting operation" around an area in Nablus.
The group was allegedly planning to carry out bombings and shooting attacks against Israelis. Most of the detainees have served time in the past in Israeli jails.
A senior Shin Bet official said his agency's investigation revealed that the cell was hierarchical and well-organized, and would have carried out major attacks if its plans had not been foiled by a joint effort by the Shin Bet, the police, and the army.
This was not the first time the Shin Bet announced its capture of a West Bank-based resistance cell from Hamas planning to carry out attacks in retaliation to crimes and violations committed by the Israeli authorities and Jewish settlers against the Palestinians in the occupied territories.
