Israeli military abducts senior West Bank Hamas leader

Ameen Abu Warda nisreen at imemc dot org - IMEMC News. 6.11.07 08:54. Israeli forces abducted a senior Hamas leader from the northern West Bank city of Nablus in the early hours of Tuesday morning. The man, al-Sheikh Maher al-Kharaz, 55, was kidnapped after Israeli forces invaded the old city area of Nablus and stormed his house. Al-Kharaz was transferred to an undisclosed detention center. Al-Kharaz is considered one of the most prominent Hamas leaders in the West Bank, and was among those 400 leaders and activists of Hamas that were deported to Marj al-Zuhoor in 1993. He has been abducted on many different occasions, with the last culminating in 6months detention in the notorious Negev prison.
