Prisoner Affairs: Israel arrests more than 9,000 Palestinians since October 7

The Prisoners' and Ex-Prisoners' Affairs Authority and the Palestinian Prisoners' Club reported that Israel doubled the number of prisoners in the prisons after the seventh of last October, so that it rose to more than 9,000 Palestinians.


The Prisoners' Commission indicated, in a statement, that the tally does not include all detainees from Gaza, against whom Israel continues to carry out the crime of enforced disappearance.


Israel continues to launch arrest campaigns after the seventh of last October in the West Bank, where the number of arrests in the West Bank reached more than 7,870, including those who were arrested and kept in detention by Israel, and those who were later released.


The statement confirmed that the arrest operations have increased in the Israeli crimes against prisoners, detainees and their families, and the occupation forces at their various levels and the prison administration have adopted systematic and horrific crimes of torture, abuse and assaults in their various forms, in addition to the policy of starvation and double isolation that they imposed on the prisoners, according to the statement.


The statement referred to what the Israeli media revealed about data indicating the death of other detainees from Gaza in the Sde Teman camp in Beersheba. It also recently revealed the martyrdom of 27 detainees from Gaza.


The statement stressed that Israel refuses to reveal any information regarding the fate of Gaza detainees. Israel also admitted to the execution of one of the Gaza detainees, along with other information indicating the execution of others.
