Today, Monday, the Commission for Detainees and Ex-Detainees Affairs confirmed that the number of administrative prisoners in the occupation prisons has recently increased to more than 1,200, which is the highest rate since previous years.

The commission said in a statement, "The occupation authorities have greatly escalated the issuance of administrative orders against Palestinian prisoners. Since the beginning of this year, they have issued about 1,000 new and renewal orders, which has increased the number of administrative prisoners in an unprecedented way since the beginning of the year."

She added: "The occupation, with all its components, uses administrative detention as a policy of collective punishment against the Palestinian people, as it affected all segments of society, without taking into account the standards set by international law that limited its use."

The commission noted that administrative detention is an arbitrary policy aimed at depleting the lives of prisoners without a legal basis, based on secret charges that no one is allowed to see or inspect, noting that the administrative detainee is often subjected to renewal of the detention period more than once, as the extension is three months or six. months, and sometimes years.

The commission called for urgent intervention to stop this massacre against the ages of prisoners, and to place strict restrictions on imposing administrative detention, in line with the provisions of humanitarian charters. It also called for supporting the movements of administrative prisoners and supporting them in any upcoming escalation movement.
