Palestinian Prisoners Club said on Tuesday that Israeli occupation forces have arrested over 200 Palestinians this week, taking the annual total of detainees to over 5,000. 

The NGO supporting Palestinian prisoners said that the crimes go beyond the arrests themselves, extending to attacks against their families, vandalism of their homes, and violations of their rights once in prison.

It also pointed to the  "dangerous" social impact of Israel's mass arrest campaign, especially for families in which more than one member was targeted. ,

The Palestinian Prisoners Club accused Israel of carrying out the arrests in order to undermine the struggle against occupation.
