RAMALLAH, November, 25, 2024 (WAFA) – Israeli occupation forces detained at least 29 Palestinians overnight in the occupied West Bank, including former prisoners, as part of a continuing wave of detentions and military raids across the region.

The detentions targeted various towns in the northern and southern West Bank, including Ramallah, Jericho, Jenin, Bethlehem, and Jerusalem. Several of the detainees are former prisoners who have previously been incarcerated by Israeli authorities.

The Palestinian Prisoners' Affairs Commission and the Palestinian Prisoners' Society reported in a joint statement that the detained individuals were subjected to violent raids and threats, with Israeli forces causing significant damage to their homes during the operations.  

Since the beginning of the ongoing Israeli military aggression against the Palestinian population in October 2023, which has escalated in recent months, more than 11,800 Palestinians from the West Bank, including Jerusalem, have been detained.
