In news from the Occupied Territories, the artistic director of an acclaimed theater company for Palestinian children has been seized in an Israeli military raid. Nabil Al-Raee of the Jenin Freedom Theatre was taken from his home in the early morning hours and taken to an undisclosed Israeli army base. The Jenin Freedom Theatre was founded to help Palestinian children express themselves through the arts. The theater’s founder, Juliano Mer-Khamis, was shot to death last year.
