Israeli occupation forces detained four journalists on Tuesday while they covered settler assaults on olive harvesters in the town of Idna, west of Hebron in the southern West Bank, Shehab Wire reported. The detentions prevented the journalists from continuing their coverage of the incidents.
The journalists were reporting on attacks by settlers against Palestinians picking olives in the area when Israeli forces intervened and held them.
