Israeli police said he was detained for allegedly throwing rocks at a vehicle.

Photojournalists Mustafa al-Khatib and Iyad al-Tawil were also arrested, together with a youth identified as Bashar Abu Shamsiyeh, in the Old City of East Jerusalem.

Israeli forces detained 416 Palestinians, including 122 minors, during the first 12 days of November, the Palestinian Prisoners' Society said last week.
