Israel continues to arrest 37 high school students in the West Bank

The Prisoner's Society  said that the occupation authorities continue to arrest 37 high school students from the West Bank in its prisons, according to data from the Ministry of Education and Higher Education, in addition to hundreds of cases of arrest and detention among students from schools and universities, since the beginning of the ongoing war of genocide against our people.


The Prisoner's Society  pointed out, in a statement, that the cases of arrest include those who were arrested, and the occupation maintained their detention, and those who were later released.


He pointed out that this figure does not include students from our people from Gaza who were arrested, some of whom are still detained, and are subject to enforced disappearance in the occupation’s prisons and camps.


The Prisoner's Society  confirmed that the occupation targeted students over many decades, within the framework of a systematic policy through which the occupation targeted the Palestinian educational process, through a set of tools and policies, which form part of targeting the Palestinian presence and erasure operations, as the ongoing arrest campaigns come alongside the martyrdom of 430. Of high school students in Gaza, and 20 others from the West Bank during the current academic year.


In addition to being deprived of education, being uprooted from the embrace of their families, and trying to rob them of their future, students in the occupation prisons are exposed to it. Since the beginning of the genocidal war, all systematic retaliatory measures have been imposed on them, including torture, abuse, and attacks in all its forms, as are all male and female prisoners in prisons. The occupation is facing crimes of unprecedented scale.


The Prisoner’s Society renewed its demand for the necessity of opening an investigation under international supervision into the crimes and grave violations committed against detainees in the occupation’s prisons and camps, as an aspect of the ongoing genocide against our people in Gaza, despite the bleak picture that afflicts the international human rights system, and the terrifying state of helplessness that has prevailed. In its image, in the face of the crimes and atrocities committed by the occupation since the beginning of the war of extermination until today.
