“The total number of arrests stands at 10,000 in the West Bank and Jerusalem,” the Commission of Detainees’ Affairs, the Palestinian Prisoners Society (PPS), and Addameer Association for Human Rights said in a joint brief released Monday.
Since 7 October, 345 women and 700 children have been imprisoned in the occupied
#WestBank and
#Jerusalem, according to the brief.
It adds that 94
#journalists have been detained, 53 of who are still in custody.
“More than 8,322 orders of administrative detention have been issued since 7 October, ranging between new orders and renewals, including orders against children and women,” the brief goes on to say.
“The data does not include detention cases of
#Gaza, due to the occupation’s refusal to give any information and the continuation of practicing the crime of enforced disappearance against them. The occupation forces arrested about 4,000 citizens from Gaza.
At least 22
#Palestinians have died in Israeli custody, according to official numbers.
The head of Israel’s Shin Bet security service, Ronen Bar, warned in a letter to
#Netanyahu and Itamar Ben Gvir in late June that 21,000 Palestinians are imprisoned in jails across
#israel.
