The Palestinian Authority has arrested Palestinian fighter Mahmoud Al-Adra, also known as Hisham Harb, reportedly at the request of France. France seeks his extradition in connection with the 1982 Rue Rosier attack in Paris. The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) has issued a press release strongly condemning the arrest, calling it a dangerous precedent and an attack on the history of the Palestinian national struggle. Hamas argues that a fighter is being pursued for events that occurred 44 years ago, during a period when the Palestine Liberation Organization was leading the struggle against Israeli occupation.
