<p class="article">Hamas  issued a press release stating that the illegal Israeli policy of  kidnapping elected officials will not derail the Palestinians and their  leaders from defending their lands.</p>
<p>The legislator was abducted by the Israeli army on Monday at dawn, after  Israeli soldiers broke into his home in Hebron, in the southern part of  the West Bank. He was among 21 Palestinians in abducted in several  parts of the West Bank.</p>
<p>He is one of eleven elected legislators who are still imprisoned by  Israel. Eight of them are members of Hamas, two are members of the rival  Fateh faction, and one is from the Popular Front for the Liberation of  Palestine.</p>
<p>It is worth mentioning that On September 12 2010, al-Natsha was released  from an Israeli detention facility ago after being imprisoned for 9 and  a half consecutive years, including 6 years in solitary confinement.</p>
