  "summary": "The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) has demanded that the US government take action over the detention of American teen Abdalkareem Issa Ahmed Safi in an Israeli prison for nearly four months without charge. CAIR's national executive director, Nihad Awad, expressed outrage at the Israeli government's actions, stating that it is \"unacceptable\" for the US to allow such treatment of its citizens. Awad urged Congress to exercise its oversight authority and secure Safi's release, emphasizing the White House's legal and moral obligation to protect American citizens overseas. Israeli forces reportedly raided Safi's family home in June, holding him in an Israeli prison known for torture practices, where he has been held without criminal charges due to an administrative detention order. The US State Department acknowledged Safi's detention and stated that they are tracking the situation, but declined to provide further details citing privacy concerns.",
