Soldiers arrested university student Sama Safi, 20, along with members of Palestinian women’s national soccer team

A 20-year-old Palestinian American woman has been held in Israeli military detention for nearly two weeks after Israeli soldiers stormed her family home in a pre-dawn raid on 2 June.

Sama Safi, a psychology student at Birzeit University in the occupied West Bank, has not been charged with any crimes. A spokesperson for the Israeli military said she and three other women detained around the same time were arrested “after promoting hostile terrorist activity and additional terrorist-related activities”.

Several US legislators have called for Safi’s release and her family has warned that she has a chronic medical condition that requires regular treatment.

    Her crime was being Palestinian.

    And you know the Pedo-in-Chief isn’t going to do anything to get her back. I hope she’s okay. I fear the worse.
