Israel transfers Palestinian child to administrative detention for four months

RAMALLAH, June 18, 2025 (WAFA) - The occupation intelligence service issued an administrative detention order against Hanaa Haitham Ismail Hammad, 17, from Hebron, four a period of four months. This brings the number of female prisoners held under administrative detention to 10, out of 41 in Israeli prisons.

The Commission of Detainees' Affairs and the Palestinian Prisoner's Society (PPS) added that Hammad was detained on June 9, after occupation forces raided her home in Al-Arroub camp.

During her detention, Hanaa and her mother, who was detained with her during her detention and later released, were subjected to field interrogations and abuse.

The Commission and the PPS said in a joint statement that "we have witnessed an unprecedented escalation since the beginning of the genocide in the number of administrative detainees, including women and children, as the number of administrative detainees until the beginning of June 2025 reached 3562 administrative detainees, including at least 95 children under the age of 18."

It's worth noting that the policy of administrative detention has undergone numerous transformations over the past few years.

Despite the escalating level of resistance to this crime through hunger strikes and boycotts of courts, the occupation has devised new tools that have contributed to its entrenchment.

It's worth noting that eight administrative detainees have died in Israeli prisons since the beginning of the war of genocide. They are among the 72 who have been killed since the genocide in Israeli prisons.
