Israeli intelligence service Shabak has submitted an investigation notice to a female Palestinian journalist residing in East Jerusalem, Quds Press reported on Tuesday.

Palestinian journalist Diala Jwihan said that members of the Israeli intelligence service and Israeli special forces stormed her house in Al-Thawri suburb in the East Jerusalem neighbourhood of Silwan.

She said that the Israeli intelligence gave her an interrogation notice, demanding that she go to Al-Maskopiyeh Interrogation Centre in East Jerusalem at 10 am next Sunday.

Jwihan is a correspondent with the Palestinian newspaper Al-Hayat Al-Jadidah and has been interrogated by the Israeli authorities repeatedly since the recent upsurge of violence that began in October 2015.
