Israeli police raided two Educational Bookshop stores in east Jerusalem, ransacked them, confiscated books, and detained the owners, brothers Mahmoud and Ahmad Muna

The brother of the owners told Haaretz that police "went through the books with Google Translate and took away anything they didn't like. They even came across the Haaretz newspaper with the picture of the kidnapped people, asked what it was, and said it was incitement. They took every book with the Palestinian flag on it."

On February 10, the police requested an extension of their detention to 8 days at a court hearing. Their detention was extended by one day only. Several diplomats and journalists attended the hearing, due to their acquaintance with the store and its owners, renowned for being a rich source for the study of the Palestinian culture and the history of the Palestinian struggle.
