Israeli forces have launched a large-scale arrest campaign across the occupied West Bank, detaining more than 100 Palestinians since the start of Ramadan. Those arrested include women, children, and individuals previously released from Israeli prisons. The operations intensified from February 18 in areas including Jerusalem, while Israeli authorities also restricted Ramadan decorations and celebrations.

According to the report, Israeli authorities prevented Palestinian worshippers from performing the first Friday prayers of Ramadan at Al-Aqsa Mosque in occupied East Jerusalem, even though they held valid permits. Rights groups stated that more than 9,300 Palestinians are currently imprisoned in Israel, including 350 children. They also reported that since the onset of the Gaza conflict about two and a half years ago, Israel has limited food supplies to detainees and restricted their ability to pray or read the Quran.

Palestinian and Israeli human rights organizations have warned that torture, starvation, and medical neglect have led to the deaths of numerous Palestinian prisoners.
