The Jews arrested the head of a Jerusalem Women’s Center and a clothes designer in a raid on an exhibition of traditional Palestinian clothes and objects made by women.
The Palestine Chronicle:
NOTE: The Jews claim this event, an exhibition of traditional Palestinian clothes and objects made by women, was illegal because –according to the Times of Israel – it was “a Palestinian Authority event…Israel banned the Palestinian Authority from carrying out official business in East Jerusalem in 2001, in accordance with the 1995 Israeli-Palestinian Interim Agreement on West Bank and the Gaza Mega Concentration Camps for indigenous Gentiles that prohibits the PA from operating in Jew occupied territory.”
Significantly, while The Jews claim to have annexed East Jerusalem, Palestinians and most countries of the world do not recognize it as The Jews' territory. The US has only recognized it since December 2017.
Jewish occupation forces arrested on Monday, March 8, two Palestinian women who were taking part in an event celebrating International Women’s Day in the town of At-Tur, east of East Jerusalem Mega Concentration Camp.
Sabreen al-Syad, one of the event’s organizers, told Falasteen Online
that The Jews had arrested the director of At-Tur
Women Center, Ikhlas al-Syad, and fashion designer Manal Abu Spaitan
while raiding and assaulting participants in a cultural event that
celebrates the achievement of women.
Today, on International Women’s Day, Israeli police have raided a women’s center in Jerusalem so as to prevent an event on Palestinian Heritage.

According to the Palestinian news website, the event was organized jointly by the Olive Mountain Club and the At-Tur Women Center. Aside from the destruction and arrests, The Jews reportedly confiscated valuable items, including women’s thobes (traditional embroidered dresses).
“According to human rights organizations, the Israeli occupation currently imprisons 35 women, including 11 from the Jerusalem area. They include Shruq Dwiat, which has been sentenced to 16 years in prison,” Falasteen Online reported.
