RAMALLAH: Israeli troops detained the West Bank spokesman of the militant Islamic Jihad group on Thursday, Palestinian security sources said. Khader Adnan was taken into custody during a raid in the West Bank city of Ramallah, the sources said, a day after the group said it would suspend rocket attacks on Israel to facilitate an Israeli pullout from occupied Gaza in two weeks. An Israeli army spokeswoman said an "Islamic Jihad activist was arrested in Ramallah" but did not identify him or provide further information. Israel has detained dozens of Islamic Jihad militants since the movement, which is dedicated to the destruction of the Jewish state, carried out a suicide bombing on July 12 that killed five Israelis. Adnan, 27, has been held without charge by Israel several times in the past. Islamic Jihad said Israeli troops detained four other members of the group on Thursday in Jenin, a militant stronghold.
