The Israeli occupation forces (IOF) launched a massive raid and arrest campaign across the West Bank at dawn Thursday, detaining 26 Palestinians.
In al-Khalil; the IOF rounded up Tariq Jamal Abu Mariya, 32, Muhammad Izz al-Din Abu Mariya, 37, Zain Jawad Bahr, 25, Zain Jamal Moqbel, 24, Youssef Ahmed Sabarneh, 38, Yazan Wahib Akhalil, 14, Ahmed Karim Khalil, 17, Hassan Walid Sabarneh, 18, Muhammad Nizam Ekhil, 21, Abdullah Muhammad Sabarneh, 23; the two brothers Alaa and Qassam Ghazi Adi, Muhammad Mahmoud Bahar, 26, Mahdi Muhammad Abu Mariya, 18, Nour Muhammad Mufleh Al-Za’arir, and Muhammad Ali Mahmoud Al-Saraheen.
In Qalqilya, the IOF troops arrested Hakam Sidqi Salim, Amr Jihad Salim, and the two brothers Musab and Saeb Wael Shamasneh in Jayyous town.
The Israeli forces also arrested Sultan Ahmed Mahmoud Khalaf, Hilal Muhammad Lotfi Khalouf, Ali Nayef Samara, Ali Jamal Khalouf, and Aseel Bassam Ateeq in Jenin, and Salama Salim Az’ar in Nablus.
The Israeli army often carries out detention raids against Palestinians in the West Bank and occupied Jerusalem, claiming to arrest wanted Palestinians.
Israel currently holds 4,900 Palestinians, including 28 women.
The right to liberty and personal security, among other fundamental human rights, are flagrantly violated by these arbitrary arrests. Detainees are held without proper justification or valid judicial warrants, infringing on their rights to personal freedom and a fair trial.
These violations highlight the urgent need for international intervention to ensure human rights are respected.
