The Qalqilia family said that their son traveled to Jordan two months ago to complete his medical training.
In related northwestern West Bank prison news, Israeli authorities are holding political prisoner and Qalqilia resident, Mohammad Farah Samhan, under Administrative Detention. His six-month sentence was imposed without charge or trial on Monday.
