RAMALLAH — Israel arrested a Palestinian lawmaker from a left-wing militant group on Thursday for disobeying an Israeli order restricting her movements in the West Bank.

The Israeli military said it arrested Khalida Jarrar, a senior political leader of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, in the West Bank city of Ramallah due to “substantial concerns about the safety and security of the region.”

Her husband, Ghassan Jarrar, said she was arrested at their Ramallah home after she had long flouted the Israeli ban.

Last year, the military confined her movement to the city of Jericho and its surroundings.

The army said the restraining order was based on her “incitement and involvement in terror.”

The military says it is questioning her but has not yet decided whether to press charges.

Also Thursday, during the arrest of a group of Palestinians attempting to sneak past the West Bank separation wall into Israel, a Palestinian stabbed an Israeli soldier. The soldier suffered light injuries and was evacuated to hospital, the military said.
