Abu Baker stated that the Israeli occupation forces carried out an unprecedented campaign of arrests in the occupied lands of 48, where 1550 arrest cases have been recorded, in addition to 150 indictments which have been filed against them.

They got arrested under the pretext of their involvement in demonstrations protesting against the systematic Israeli policy of suppressing the Palestinian people, especially the incidents of Sheikh Jarrah neighborhood, where there is a plan to expel Palestinians from their houses and gain control over them.

The head of the commission said "the racism of the occupation against our people in the occupied lands on 48 is represented in the frank threat that the next day will witness an unprecedented attack on all Palestinian cities and villages, and that there will be a campaign of arrests, which means that the occupation government had planned to commit this crime.

He also said that Benjamin Netanyahu and his right-wing government bear full responsibility regarding to the unstable situation in the coming days, and there will be no silence in front of these crimes.
