Israel i soldiers stormed into Jenin Amro's bedroom in the dead of night, arresting her at gunpoint while her younger sisters watched in horror. But after spending over a year in prison, Amro, a 23-year-old Palestinian woman, remains bewildered as to why she was detained. Released in January as part of the first hostage exchange between Israel and Hamas , she was labeled a 'terrorist' by the Israel Prison Service, a designation she vehemently denies.
Despite repeated requests for clarification from Israeli authorities, no specific reasons for her prolonged detention have been provided
