Shin Bet releases brother of al-Aqsa Martyrs’ Brigades commander Zakaria Zubeidi

Jibril Zubeidi, a senior Fatah figure from Jenin and brother of former al-Aqsa Martyrs’ Brigades commander Zakaria Zubeidi, was released after being held in administrative detention since 2023.

The Shin Bet (Israel Security Agency) announced the release of senior Fatah official Jibril Zubeidi on Monday after his administrative detention order expired.

Zubeidi, a resident of Jenin in the West Bank, had been held in administrative detention since 2023.

He is the brother of Zakaria Zubeidi, the former commander of the Al-Aqsa Martyrs’ Brigades in Jenin, who was recently elected to represent released prisoners on Fatah’s Revolutionary Council.
