The Palestinian Prisoner’s Society has released an update on Israel’s arrest campaign in the occupied West Bank since the start of the war on Gaza. In February alone, Israeli forces arrested 762 people, including 90 minors and 19 women. Most of last month’s arrests took place in Jenin, where the military had conducted an intensive military operation for more than a month and a half, the group said. This brings the total number of Israeli arrests of Palestinians in the West Bank since October 7, 2023 to 15,640, it added.
