Israeli forces have abducted at least 35 Palestinians, including children and former prisoners, in a series of overnight raids across the occupied West Bank, rights groups said. The arrests took place in the cities of Nablus, Salfit, Qalqilya, Jenin, Tulkarem, Alkhalil, and Bethlehem, according to a joint statement from the Commission of Detainees Affairs and the Palestinian Prisoner Society on Tuesday. Since October 2023, more than 18,000 Palestinians have been abducted by Israeli forces in the occupied West Bank, Palestinian figures show.
