A record number of Palestinian prisoners in occupation jails

A human rights organization stated that the number of Palestinian prisoners in the occupation's prisons has reached a record high since the beginning of the genocide in Gaza until this September.

The organization "Hamoked" reported that the total number of prisoners has reached 11,040, which is the highest recorded number to date, based on data issued by the occupation's prison administration.

According to the report, more than half of these prisoners are held outside the legal procedures, with 3,577 classified under administrative detention, while 2,662 are categorized as "unlawful combatants."

The organization clarified that a significant portion of these arrests occurred during the genocide in Gaza, which erupted about two years ago.

The administrative detention system allows the occupation authorities to detain individuals based on the whims of the military governor of the area, for renewable periods of up to six months or more, without formal charges or trial, which the occupation authorities use intensively.
