From Inside Negev Prison

Testimonies document starvation , medical neglect , and daily abuse

August 4, 2025

A lawyer from the Commission of Detainees and Ex-Detainees Affairs has visited a number of Palestinian detainees held in Negev Prison to assess their medical and living conditions. During the visit, he met with detainee Amro Mohammad Mansour (38 years old), from the town of Beitunia/Ramallah, who has been held under administrative detention since January 28, 2025.

Mansour stated that he was placed under administrative detention without any investigation or knowledge of the reasons for his arrest. His detention has been extended twice for 6 months and he has yet to receive a copy of the latest confirmation order.

Regarding his health, Mansour explained that he suffers from chronic migraines and has experienced repeated pain while in detention without receiving the necessary treatment, despite the prison authorities being fully aware of his condition. He also reported being infected with scabies and developing boils, yet no adequate medical care has been provided. Even when transferred to the prison clinic, his name is merely registered without receiving any real treatment.

The Commission's lawyer also visited several other detainees, who confirmed they are in stable health. They are:

1. Mohammad Raed Atoun (22 years old) from Sur Baher/Jerusalem, serving a two year sentence since January 27, 2025.

2. Ahmad Abdul Mohsen Suleiman (27 years old) from Beit 'Ur/Ramallah, held under administrative detention since June 30, 2024.

3. Yaqoub Mustafa Omar Hussein (32 years old) from Al-Jalazon Refugee Camp/Ramallah, under administrative detention since November 5, 2023.

4. ⁠Yamen Mohammad As’ad Abu Bakr (19 years old) from Ya’bad/Jenin, under administrative detention since January 15, 2024.

As for the general conditions inside Negev Prison, they are described as unprecedented. Detainees live in a constant state of fear and anxiety due to frequent transfers, the absence of stability, and the denial of the minimum requirements for a dignified life. They are subjected to degrading treatment, humiliating searches, and harsh punitive measures, including being handcuffed from behind and forced to kneel during inspections.
Food portions have been significantly reduced, and sanitation is virtually non-existent.

Moreover, rooms are overcrowded, each housing between 10 to 12 detainees, effectively turning them into prison cells. There is a severe shortage of blankets, clothing, and other basic supplies. Recreational time is granted only once every one to two weeks, for a duration of 15 to 30 minutes, barely enough time to take a shower.

The food provided is insufficient and unfit for consumption, leading to dramatic weight loss among detainees, ranging from 20 to 30 kilograms. The prison sections also lack basic necessities such as sugar, salt, tea, coffee, cigarettes, medication, canned food, and even hot water.

Detainee Mohammad Rabee’ Victim of Systematic Medical Negligence

20/07/2025

Following his recent visit to Gilboa Prison, the lawyer from the Commission of Detainees and Ex-Detainees Affairs reported that Mohammad Osama Rabee’ (21 years old), a resident of Beit Anan near Jerusalem, is being subjected to systematic and deliberate medical negligence, an approach increasingly used to slowly kill Palestinian detainees, as witnessed in numerous similar cases across Israeli prisons.

Rabee’ had undergone lung surgery prior to his arrest in 2021. However, his health condition has significantly worsened since he was brutally assaulted by prison special forces. He now suffers from intense chest pain and severe breathing difficulties, in addition to chronic headaches. Moreover, he has been battling an advanced case of scabies for over a year, although signs of recovery have recently begun to appear.

Despite his critical health condition, Rabee’ has repeatedly submitted requests to the prison administration seeking medical attention and access to the prison clinic. All his appeals, however, have been systematically rejected.

It is important to note that Rabee’ was arrested on 07/03/2024 and was originally sentenced to nine months in prison. Yet upon completing his sentence, he was shocked to discover that his case had been transferred to administrative detention. He is currently serving his second term under this arbitrary and indefinite form of detention.

🔴 Palestinian Political Prisoner Held Without Trial or Charge Killed in Occupation Prisons

Ramallah, Palestine – 20-year-old Palestinian political detainee Saeed Tazaz’a from Jenin in the northern occupied West Bank has been martyred in the Israeli occupation’s prison, Megiddo, where he was being held without trial or charge since May 6, 2025.

Occupation authorities, like in most cases, refused to provide details about how he was killed. The Commission of Detainees’ Affairs and the Palestinian Prisoner’s Society (PPS) hold the Israeli occupation fully responsible for his killing, and renew their demands for international human rights institutions to launch impartial investigations into the killings of dozens of prisoners since the start of the genocide.

Megiddo Prison is one of the most notorious Israeli prisons where serious crimes are continuously occurring.

The Commission and the PPS noted that, with the martyrdom of Tazaz’a, the number of identified martyred prisoners since the onset of the genocide has risen to 76 people, including 46 detainees abducted from Gaza. This brings the number of identified martyred prisoners since the occupation of 1967 to 313 people, making this the most violent period in the history of the prisoners’ movement.

The two institutions emphasized that the unprecedented escalation in the death toll of prisoners confirms once again that the occupation's prison system continues to implement a policy of slow killing against them. Not a month goes by without a new martyr from the prisoner movement. With the ongoing perpetration of crimes inside prisons, the number of martyrs is likely to rise as more time passes, with thousands of prisoners and detainees being held in conditions that lack the most basic necessities of life. They are subjected daily to systematic crimes, most notably torture, starvation, assaults of all kinds, medical crimes, sexual assaults, and the deliberate imposition of conditions that lead to serious and contagious diseases, most notably scabies. This is in addition to the unprecedented severity of the policies of dispossession and deprivation.

The two organizations note that while the world is demanding the release of the occupation's prisoners, it is ignoring the continued systematic killing of our prisoners and the crimes of torture that are beyond description.

The international human rights system must take effective decisions to hold the occupation leaders accountable for the war crimes they are committing against our people, and to impose clear sanctions that isolate the occupation internationally, restore the human rights system to its fundamental role for which it was established, put an end to the terrifying state of impotence that afflicted it during the war of extermination, and end the state of exceptional immunity that the world grants to the occupying state, as if it is above the law, accountability and responsibility.

Testimonies of Torture: Occupation Soldiers Force Palestinian Detainees to Drink Alcohol, Pour Boiling Water on Them

Issued by the Commission of Detainees’ Affairs and the Palestinian Prisoners' Society

Thursday, July 24, 2025

Ramallah, occupied Palestine – Following lawyers’ visits to several Israeli occupation prisons in July 2025, the Commission of Detainees’ Affairs and the Palestinian Prisoner’s Society (PPS) publish a short report highlighting the horrific testimonies gathered from Palestinian political detainees abducted from the occupied Gaza Strip.

These testimonies once again reflect the unprecedented level of crimes they endured during their arrest and interrogation, in addition to their current conditions of detention, which include severe medical violations, systematic starvation, and continuous assault and abuse inside detention centers and camps that have resulted in the killing of dozens of detainees while many others remain victims of enforced disappearances.

The legal teams obtained these brief testimonies during visits to the following detention centers: Naqab (Negev), Ofer, Sde Teiman, and the Russian Compound (Al-Maskoubiyyeh) in occupied Jerusalem.

One testimony included an account of guards pouring boiling water on a detainee’s body, while another described being forced to strip naked and then violently beaten. One detainee reported being forced to drink alcohol, and another was subjected to psychological torture that led him to attempt suicide after an interrogator falsely informed him that his family had been killed — only to later learn that his family was safe. Another detainee was attacked by a police dog, resulting in injury.

Detainee (M.Y): "They poured boiling water onto my body"

"I was arrested in February 2024 and subject to field interrogation, then transferred to Sde Teiman military camp for 25 days, then to a camp near Jerusalem, later to Ofer Prison, and then to Naqab Prison. Throughout this period, I was subjected to all forms of torture. When I was transferred to Naqab Prison, boiling water was poured onto my body.

Today I am held in the tent section of the Naqab Prison, where 27 detainees are held in each tent in extremely harsh conditions. We suffer from constant assault, starvation, and daily humiliation. The food is inedible, so we are forced to fast all day and save it for one meal in the evening. We are also denied treatment, even for scabies, which many detainees have contracted and which has worsened due to the lack of hygiene and the absence of preventive and curative measures."

Detainee (M.Y): "I was stripped naked and forced to drink alcohol"

"I was arrested in February 2024 from the safe passage in Gaza, then transferred to the Gaza envelope area for 25 days, and after that to a camp near Jerusalem, then to Ofer Camp, where I stayed for 60 days, and then to Naqab Prison. In the Gaza envelope, I was beaten with a sharp object, and my wound required [surgical] staples which remained in my head for 119 days, causing a scalp infection. In the camp near Jerusalem, I was completely stripped and forced to drink alcohol."

Detainee (H.N): "I attempted suicide after the interrogator told me my family [in Gaza] had been killed"

"I was arrested in December 2024 via the [Israeli army] Civil Administration checkpoint. I was severely beaten and stripped of my clothes. The interrogator told me that the occupation army had killed all my family members, which caused me a severe psychological crisis that drove me to attempt suicide inside the cell. I would have died if not for the intervention of my fellow detainees. During my visit, the lawyer told me that my family is fine. I broke down in tears and couldn’t believe what I heard."

Detainee (H.D): "We live in constant fear and terror around the clock"

"I was arrested in October 2024 via the [Israeli army] Civil Administration checkpoint. I was subject to field interrogation, then held in the barracks in the Gaza envelope for 110 days before being transferred to Naqab Prison. We continue to live under extremely harsh conditions, facing daily inspections, assaults, and humiliation. They force us to sit on our knees with our hands behind our backs during what they call the 'count – security check.' Diseases are widespread, and fear and terror never leave us, in addition to being denied medical treatment and deliberately starved."

Detainee (A.W): "I suffered severe eyesight damage due to beatings"

"I was arrested in February 2024 from a school in Khan Younis, where the occupation army arrested more than 100 citizens. I was transferred to the barracks for 23 days, then to a detention center near Jerusalem, then to Ofer Prison, and later to Naqab Prison. During the transfer from Ofer to Naqab, I was struck on the head with handcuffs, which caused severe impairment in my left eye, persistent headaches, and loss of balance. I also contracted scabies, which returned after I recovered due to the unsanitary conditions."

Detainee (Kh.Y): "My leg was broken and I received no treatment"

"I was arrested in December 2023 from a school in the Shuja'iyya neighborhood after displacement. I was transferred to the barracks in the Gaza envelope, then to Naqab Prison. During the arrest, I was severely beaten, which caused a fracture in my right ankle joint. I did not receive any treatment despite the intense pain — not even painkillers. I suffer from difficulty walking and constant pain."

Detainee (H.R): "I was attacked by a police dog that tore into my foot"

"I was arrested in October 2024 from Rafah and subject to field interrogation, then stripped of my clothes. A police dog attacked me and bit into my foot. I was later transferred to the Gaza envelope, where I was subjected to 'disco interrogation' method* and other interrogations by intelligence officers, then to Ofer camp, and then to the Russian Compound (Al-Maskoubiyyeh) cells, where I was placed in solitary confinement for four months and subjected to military interrogations in Asqalan. Just a week ago, I was brutally beaten with batons."

*Disco interrogation is a method employed by the Israeli prison forces and was used in Guantanamo to pressure to detainees to make confessions, in which they expose the detainee to very loud music or sounds for prolonged periods of time causing disorientation.

Key Facts About Palestinian Political Detainees Abducted From Gaza:

• Since the genocide in October 2023, human rights organizations have been unable to obtain the exact number of those abducted from Gaza due to the crime of enforced disappearance. However, the number is estimated to be in the thousands.
• The testimonies of detainees taken from Gaza are the most severe, given the scale of crimes committed against them.
• The Israeli occupation has established new camps specifically for holding detainees abducted from Gaza. The most prominent include: Sde Teiman, Anatot, Ofer Camp, Naftali, and the Rakevet section under Ramla Prison.
• The majority of detainees taken from Gaza are held in Naqab Prison and Ofer Prison/Camp.
• According to the Israeli Prison Service, as of early July 2025, the number of Gaza detainees classified as "unlawful combatants" (held without trial or charge) reached 2,454 people— the highest figure recorded since the beginning of the genocide. This number doesnot include those held in army camps, but only those under the management of the Israeli Prison Service.
• The "Unlawful Combatant Law" serves as a main tool for legitimizing the crime of enforced disappearance. It also fundamentally violates international law in both its structure and substance and facilitates the widespread use of torture against Gaza detainees.

In this context, the Commission of Detainees’ Affairs and the Palestinian Prisoners’ Society affirm that the occupation continues its extermination and crimes in full view of the world, without any meaningful change that might contribute to halting the genocide and the comprehensive aggression against our people. One form of this is the ongoing crimes against prisoners and detainees. Moreover, the continued passage of time while the genocide goes on means that the state of paralysis afflicting human rights organizations has gone beyond mere failure — prompting a necessary question about the purpose of the human rights system itself, especially as the reality of Israeli exceptionalism on the international stage continues to expand.

Palestinian Political Detainee from Jenin Martyred 7 Days After Arrest
17 July 2025

Commission of Detainees' Affairs & Palestinian Prisoner's Society

Ramallah, occupied Palestine - A 53-year-old Palestinian political detainee, Sameer Mohammad Yousif al-Rifai, has been martyred in the Israeli occupation’s custody, just seven days after his arrest from his home in the village of Rummaneh in Jenin in the northern West Bank, on July 10.

The Palestinian Commission of Detainees’ Affairs was informed of the development this morning, July 17. Al-Rifai was a husband and a father of five. He was scheduled to have his first Israeli military court session today, at the Salem military court near Nablus. According to medical reports provided by his family, he suffered from heart problems prior to his arrest and required continuous medical follow-up and care.

Al-Rifai now joins the long list of martyrs of the prisoners’ movement, who have died or were killed as a result of the systematic crimes carried out by the Israeli prison system in an unprecedented manner since the start of the ongoing genocide in Gaza - foremost among them: torture, medical neglect, and starvation.

The Commission and the Palestinian Prisoner’s Society (PPS) hold the Israeli occupation fully responsible for his death.

They added that with the death of detainee Al-Rifai, the number of identified martyred Palestinian political prisoners since the start of the genocide has now risen to 74 people. This number comes amid the continued crime of enforced disappearance, making this period the bloodiest in the history of the prisoners’ movement. Accordingly, the total number of identified martyrs of the prisoners’ movement since 1967 has now risen to 311 people as of today.

The Commission and PPS stress that the increasing number of prisoner killings and deaths has become an inevitable outcome, growing ever more dangerous as thousands of detainees remain imprisoned in Israeli jails and continuously subjected to systematic crimes, most notably: torture, starvation, various forms of assault, medical neglect, sexual violence, and the deliberate imposition of conditions that lead to the contraction of serious and contagious diseases, especially scabies, in addition to unprecedented policies of deprivation and abuse.

The death of detainee Al-Rifai constitutes a new crime added to the record of the Israeli system of brutality, which employs all forms of violence aimed at killing prisoners—a manifestation and extension of the ongoing genocide.

The Commission and the PPS renew their call on the international human rights system to move forward in taking effective decisions to hold Israeli leaders accountable for the war crimes they continue to commit against the Palestinian people. They also called for the imposition of sanctions on Israel to isolate it internationally, and to restore the credibility and core purpose of the human rights system, by ending its paralyzing failure during the genocide and revoking the exceptional impunity granted to Israel, which has placed it above accountability, justice, and punishment.

On the National and Day of Solidarity with Gaza and the Detainees

● This report presents key figures related to the wave of arrests since the onset of Israel’s war of extermination, including updated statistics on the number of Palestinian detainees held in Israeli prisons.

Palestinian detainees institutions have documented the scope of arrest campaigns across the occupied territories, particularly in the West Bank and Jerusalem. Since the beginning of the war, approximately 18,500 arrests have been recorded, this number excludes the thousands detained in Gaza.

Women: Since October 7, around (570) women have been arrested, including women from the occupied West Bank, the Gaza Strip (those detained in the West Bank), and the 1948 territories. The actual number of women detained from inside Gaza is believed to be in dozens, but remains unconfirmed.

Children: At least (1,500) children have been arrested in the West Bank alone.

Journalists: Over 194 journalists have been arrested or detained since the start of the war. As of now, 49 remain imprisoned.

The arrest campaigns have been accompanied by severe violations and acts of violence, including physical assaults, torture, threats against detainees and their families, the looting and destruction of property, and widespread damage to civilian homes and infrastructure. Vehicles, personal funds, and gold have also been confiscated. Entire neighborhoods, particularly in the refugee camps of Tulkarm and Jenin, have suffered from systematic demolition. In some cases, family members of detainees have been held as hostages, and detainees have been used as human shields.

These figures cover arrests carried out in homes, at military checkpoints, those who were coerced into surrendering, and individuals held as hostages.

In parallel with these campaigns, Israeli forces have conducted extrajudicial executions, including targeting relatives of detainees.

It is important to note that statistics related to the West Bank include individuals who remain in detention as well as those who have since been released.

. Since October 7, at least (75) Palestinian detainees have died in Israeli custody, with their identities officially confirmed and publicized.
Among them are (46) detainees from Gaza. Dozens more from Gaza have died in prisons and military camps under conditions of enforced disappearance, with Israeli authorities concealing their identities and the circumstances of their deaths. Additionally, many were executed in the field.

Israel continues to withhold the bodies of (72) detainees confirmed to have died since the start of the war. These individuals are among (83) martyrs whose remains are still being held by the occupation.

Due to Israel’s policy of enforced disappearance, the full number of Gaza detainees is unknown. However, Israel has acknowledged detaining thousands of Palestinians from Gaza, many of whom were later released. These include workers who had entered the 1948 territories with official permits, hundreds of laborers detained in the West Bank, and civilians who were in the West Bank for medical treatment.

Total Number of Palestinian Detainees in Israeli Prisons/As of July 2025

According to the latest verified data, the number of Palestinian detainees in Israeli prisons has reached approximately (10,800), the highest figure recorded since the Second Intifada in 2000.

Female detainees: There are currently 49 women in Israeli custody, including two from Gaza.

Child prisoners: The number of detained children exceeds 450.

Administrative detainees: As of early July, there were (3,629) Palestinians held without charge or trial, an unprecedented figure compared to other detainees categories, including pre-trial, sentenced, and “illegal combatants.”

Detainees labeled as “illegal combatants”: This category includes (2,454) individuals, though it does not account for all Gaza detainees held in military camps. It is the highest number recorded since the beginning of the war. This classification also includes Arab detainees from Lebanon and Syria.

Note: These figures are subject to daily change due to the ongoing arrest campaigns. They reflect both current detainees and those who have been released.

Detainee Tasneem Odeh: Arrested for old Facebook posts and held in cruel conditions

July 27, 2025

A lawyer from the Commission of Detainees and Ex-Detainees Affairs, reported, following a visit to Damoun Prison, that Israeli occupation forces arrested 22-year-old Tasneem Barakat Odeh from Jerusalem on December 12, 2024. Tasneem was while she was driving her private car to transport students. It is worth noting that she is in her final year at the Faculty of Law at Al-Quds University.

She was taken from outside a school without any explanation. Officers stormed her car, confiscating her phone and iPad. She was then transferred to the Moscobiya Interrogation Center, and held for 14 days under the pretext of old Facebook posts from 2022 in which she mourned her father. During this period, she was subjected to daily interrogations lasting between six and seven hours, during which she was repeatedly insulted and cursed.

She was moved to Hasharon Prison after interrogation, where she spent one night in extremely difficult conditions, including a full strip search. She was later transferred to Damon Prison.

Tasneem pointed out: “During one of my court sessions at the Jerusalem Magistrate Court, I was beaten on the head and face by a prison guard. I was also held in the detainees’ transport vehicle (Bosta) for more than two hours with the engine and air conditioning turned off, which caused me to nearly lose consciousness due to suffocation.”

She further noted that prison forces had recently raided the women's section using police dogs and tear gas. The cells were thoroughly searched, and the female detainees were subjected to collective punishment for trivial and unreasonable reasons, such as old writings on the walls. Among the punishments was a seven-day ban on going out to the prison yard.

In addition, Tasneem highlighted that the cells in Damon Prison are fully sealed, with no ventilation, despite the severe overcrowding and high temperatures. A total of 43 female detainees are currently being held there.

Fact Sheet: Palestinian Political Prisoners

Mid-Year Review (January-June 2025)

Prepared by Commission of Detainees Affairs’, Palestinian Prisoner’s Society (PPS), Addameer Prisoner Support and Human Rights Association

Ramallah, occupied Palestine – Israeli occupation authorities continue their systematic policies of mass arrest and abuse of Palestinians across the occupied West Bank and Jerusalem.

The first half of 2025 was an extension of the horrific phase of genocide in occupied Gaza, which saw a severe worsening of the nature of the occupation’s crimes and policies—both in terms of systematic arrest campaigns and accompanying violations, as well as the conditions faced by political detainees in the occupation’s prisons and military camps, which emerged as yet another aspect of the genocide.

In this fact sheet, Palestinian prisoner defense and advocacy organizations present key specific statistical data covering the first half of 2025 based on their monitoring and documentation of hundreds of crimes and testimonies since the start of the genocide. This includes data related to the reality of mass arrest campaigns in the occupied West Bank, including Jerusalem, as well as statistics pertaining to these campaigns since the beginning of the genocide, in addition to other data concerning crimes committed within Israeli prisons and military camps.

3,850 Arrests Recorded in the West Bank and Jerusalem

During the first half of 2025, a total of 3,850 arrest cases of Palestinians were recorded in the West Bank and Jerusalem. These figures include those who were arrested and remain in detention, as well as those who were later released.

• Including approximately 400 arrests among children and 125 among women.
• The highest number of arrests occurred in March, with 800 arrests documented.
• The arrests span all segments of society, with young men, former prisoners, and recently released detainees being the most targeted.
• The highest concentration of arrests was recorded in the governorates of Jenin and Tulkarem, which are being subject to the longest military aggression since the Second Intifada.
• In Jenin, there were 920 arrest cases, and in Tulkarem 455 arrests recorded during the first half of 2025.

This widespread aggression was accompanied by the forced displacement of tens of thousands of residents from refugee camps in the two governorates, as well as the demolition of hundreds of homes, along with assassinations and field executions.

Other West Bank governorates also witnessed mass arrest campaigns and extensive field interrogations affecting thousands of individuals. These operations were accompanied by home invasions, destruction and looting of property, beatings, the use of civilians as hostages and human shields, in addition to organized acts of terror and threats including death threats.

In recent months, field interrogations, during which the resident is detained and questioned on site, have occurred more frequently than actual arrests. Field interrogations of men, women and children were accompanied by violations no less severe than those experienced by detainees in interrogation and detention centers. Hundreds of individuals reported being tortured, abused, and assaulted in various ways.

Additionally, settler violence in various governorates contributed to the rising number of arrest cases, particularly in villages near illegal settlements or areas adjacent to them, which are built on stolen Palestinian land.

Crimes Committed Against Palestinian Detainees

in Israeli Prisons & Military Camps

The occupation’s prison system continues to commit all forms of crimes—escalating them to unprecedented levels since the start of the ongoing genocide in Gaza. Key violations include: torture, severe beatings, starvation, denial of medical care, deliberate spread of diseases, sexual assaults, as well as theft, deprivation, humiliation, and complete isolation—with no family visits or communication—imposed since the genocide began.

Human rights organizations documented the killing of at least 19 Palestinian political prisoners during the first half of 2025, including 10 who were arrested from Gaza and 9 who were arrested from the West Bank. The 17-year-old child Walid Ahmad from the town of Silwad near Ramallah is among the 19 prisoners killed.

Hundreds of testimonies from detainees—both current and recently released—reveal the horrific scale of abuse, with Gaza detainees reporting the most severe violations.

The ongoing scabies outbreak has infected the majority of prisoners and is a central cause of health deterioration among thousands of prisoners. This, along with the broader abuse, poses a major challenge to organizations monitoring prison conditions.

A major and ongoing development since the genocide began is the widespread use of arbitrary administrative detention under the pretext of a “secret file.” As of early July 2025, over 3,600 Palestinians are held this way, including 87 children and 10 women, one of whom is a girl.

Administrative detention—used systematically to strip individuals of freedom without charge or trial—targets mostly former prisoners, many of whom have spent years detained without formal charges. Today, administrative detainees make up the largest category of Palestinian prisoners, surpassing those in pre-trial, sentenced, or “unlawful combatant” status.

Update on the number of Palestinian political prisoners as of early July 2025:

🔴 The number of Palestinian political prisoners in the Israeli occupation’s prisons has risen to approximately 10,800 people.
🔴 This figure does not include detainees held in Israeli military camps.

This represents the highest total of political prisoners since the Second Intifada in 2000, based on documentation available from monitoring institutions.

• Females: Their number as of today stands at 50 female prisoners, including two women from Gaza (this number does not represent all the detained women from Gaza).
• Children: As of today, their number exceeds 450 children.
• “Administrative detainees”: As of early July, their number is 3,629, the highest compared to those held under charges, convicted prisoners, and those classified as “unlawful combatants.”
• Detainees classified as “unlawful combatants”: Their number is 2,454.
  This number does not include all Gaza detainees held in Israeli army camps.
  The highest recorded number of people held under this category since the genocide. This classification also includes Arab detainees from Lebanon and Syria.

Key Data Since October 2023:

• The number of arrest cases since October 2023 in the occupied West Bank and Jerusalem, has exceeded 18,000. This figure does not include arrest cases in Gaza, which are estimated to be in the thousands.
• 560 arrests among women.
• More than 1,450 cases of arrests among children.
• The number of identified prisoners who were killed since the start of the genocide has reached 73, including 45 abducted from Gaza. It is worth noting that dozens of other detainees, particularly from Gaza, remain forcibly disappeared by the Israeli army.
