Ian Hodgson, Oxford resident and P10K organiser, was arrested by the Israeli army today.

From the P10K website:

Ken O'Keefe and Ian Hodgson, the two main organisers of P10K, were apprehended by Israeli soldiers today on a beach in Gaza, approximately 100 metres from Palestinian territory.

There is little information to hand at this point as communication with the outside world has been denied (this initial information comes via a mobile phone call).

Both were finger printed and told they had been arrested, and their Palestinian contact names and numbers have been taken from them.

Ian was released, forced to leave the police station and barred from the West Bank.

Ken has been held against his will since 2pm and remains so as of sending this message.

We will post here when we know more.

Update: Ken is being held at Eretz Police Station and the senior officer in charge is Ammon Golan.
