Israel deports Canadian activist few days after her arrest

(Ahlul Bayt News Agency) - Israeli occupation authorities (IOA) deported a Canadian human rights activist on Friday few days after her arrest in Al-Khalil, the Youth Against Settlements group said in a statement on Saturday.It said that the IOA deported Sarah Ali, 26, after violently arresting her three days ago while observing the Israeli military’s violations of human rights while inspecting queued citizens at the entrances to the Ibrahimi mosque.The statement said, “The group advocate’s attempts to stop the deportation failed; the activist was prevented to communicate with or say goodbye to her friends during her detention at Ben Gurion airport”.Issa Amr, the coordinator of the group, appealed to the world community to adopt a serious stand against the Israeli deportation of foreign activists, describing the world’s silence vis-à-vis such practice as “shameful”./129
