GAZA, (PIC)-- The Change and Reform parliamentary bloc has lashed out at the Israeli occupation authority for holding MP Mohammed Badr in administrative detention, describing it as a fresh indication of "Zionist arrogance".
It regretted that the Israeli violation of Palestinian parliamentary immunity was made possible with the help of international silence.
The bloc, in a statement on Thursday, said that the Israeli detention of lawmakers after releasing them from jail was indicative of the "Zionist terrorist and criminal mentality".
An IOA court on Wednesday renewed the administrative detention of MP Hatem Qufaisha after earlier sentencing MP Badr to a similar a six-month-term of administrative detention.
The IOA was renewing its policy, which proved its failure, of attempting to paralyze the Palestinian legislative council, the bloc, affiliated with Hamas said, adding that the step proves the IOA bankruptcy.
The bloc asked all Arab, Islamic, and world parliaments to develop their positions from rejection of such IOA policy into pressures to save the Palestinian lawmakers.
