The Israeli police on Thursday handed over a ban order to the two Palestinian instructors Khadija Khweis and Hanadi Hulwani ruling that both do not enter holy al-Aqsa Mosque for six months.
Hulwani and Khweis showed up at the Israeli Qishleh police station, west of Occupied Jerusalem, afternoon Wednesday and received the ban order from Israeli intelligence officers.

Hulwani was kidnapped by the Israeli forces from her home in Jerusalem’s neighborhood of Wad al-Jouz on September 17. Khweis was arrested after she turned herself in to questioning on September 6.
On September 28, an Israeli court ruled that they be released on conditions of a 14-day house arrest and a one-month ban from al-Aqsa Mosque. Both were also subjected to a travel ban and a ban from the West Bank for six months. The court further ordered that they pay a bail of 5,000 shekels each.
Instructors Hulwani and Khweis have been arrested by the Israeli occupation forces on several earlier occasions. They had also been barred from al-Aqsa Mosque and Jerusalem’s Old City. Their names appear on a blacklist of women banned by the Israeli forces from praying at al-Aqsa Mosque.

The Israeli prison service transferred on Tuesday the Palestinian detainee Bassam al-Sayeh, aged 45, from Hadarim to Eshel jail.
According to the Palestinian Prisoners Center for Studies, al-Sayeh, diagnosed with life-threatening tumors, had been held in the Ramla prison clinic, where he had ceaselessly sounded distress signals over the systematic medial neglect he had been made to endure at the hands of Israeli prison authorities and medics.
Palestinian inmates launched calls for transferring him to Eshel jail, located near Assaf Harofeh Hospital, where al-Sayeh sporadically undergoes genetic testing.
A couple of months earlier, the occupation authorities transferred al-Sayeh to Hadarim lock-up, turning deaf ears to the prisoners’ appeals to transfer him to Eshel in order to get closer to medical centers lest his health condition takes a turn for the worse. However, the inmates stepped up pressure on the Israeli prison authorities, forcing them to ultimately transfer him to Eshel.
Cancer-stricken al-Sayeh was re-arrested by the Israeli occupation forces on October 8, 2015, during a hearing held for his wife Mona al-Sayeh at the Israeli Salem military court. Shortly afterwards, al-Sayeh was rushed to the Ramla prison clinic as his health status had gone sharply downhill. He suffers from blood and hepatic cancers.

Israeli occupation authorities are preparing to move number of Palestinian detainees from prison cells to tents, Israeli media revealed, citing a bill proposed by the Israeli Minister of Internal Security, Gilad Erdan.
Israeli TV Channel 7 said, according to Days of Palestine, that the proposal is one of the solutions that the ministry is considering, to overturn the implementation of a High Court ruling on the issue.
In the middle of June, the Israeli High Court ruled that occupation authorities had to find alternatives to mitigate the overcrowding of Palestinian inmates in Israeli jails.
The High Court’s ruling came in response to a petition filed by several Israeli human rights organisations, in which they demanded increasing the cell space for each inmate to four square metres.
Currently, each cell in the Israeli occupation prisons is less than three-square metres, including bed and bathroom.
Israeli newspaper Haaretz recently reported the High Court as saying that the Israeli prisons are “not fit for human habitation.”
The newspaper compared the space in the Israeli prisons to that space in the European prisons, stating that each prisoner in the European prisons has a space of 8.8 square metres.
Some 6,500 Palestinians are currently held in Israeli jails, 57 of whom are women while 350 are children, according to the Palestinian Committee of Prisoners’ Affairs.
