Israeli Forces Conduct Mass Arrests in West Bank, Detaining 18 Palestinians.

Hebron: The Israeli occupation forces (IOF) arrested at least 18 Palestinians in Hebron, Qalqilya, Ramallah, and Tubas in the West Bank. In a joint statement, the Palestinian Prisoners and Detainees’ Affairs Commission and the Palestinian Prisoners’ Club reported that these arrests were accompanied by widespread attacks and threats against the detainees and their families, along with acts of vandalism and destruction in Palestinian homes.

According to Qatar News Agency, the Commission and the Club emphasized that since the start of the ongoing aggression on Gaza, over 11,600 individuals have been arrested from the West Bank, including Jerusalem. The statement highlighted that the occupation continues its systematic arrest campaigns, a key fixed policy that has significantly intensified since October 7, 2023.

These figures reflect detainees from the West Bank only, as the numbers from Gaza are estimated to be in the thousands.
