Israel military court keeps Hamas officials jailed

OFER CAMP, West Bank, Sep 25 (Reuters) An Israeli military court today ordered a group of Hamas legislators held in detention until the end of judicial proceedings against them, reversing an earlier decision to release them on bail.

The court, convening in an army camp in the occupied West Bank, accepted a military prosecution appeal against the bail decision.

The 21 legislators and cabinet ministers were detained after Palestinian militants abducted an Israeli soldier in a cross-border raid from Gaza in June.
