At least 45 Palestinians, including a child and two women, have been arrested by Israeli forces across the occupied West Bank since yesterday evening until this morning, Al Jazeera reports citing prisoners’ groups.
The Commission of Detainees and Ex-Detainees Affairs and the Palestinian Prisoner’s Society (PPS) said the arrests were made in the governorates of Hebron, Nablus, Tubas, Tulkarem, Ramallah, and Jerusalem.
They also said in a statement that the arrests were accompanied by widespread raids and abuse, attacks and threats against the detainees and their families, in addition to acts of vandalism and destruction in Palestinian citizens’ homes.
In addition, Israeli forces carried out field investigations of about 25 citizens in the town of Sa’ir in the Hebron governorate, leading to two detentions, the groups said.
