The Israeli occupation forces arrested 35 Palestinians during a series of raids across the occupied West Bank, Palestinian sources reported on Tuesday.
The new wave of arrests brings the total number of Palestinians detained by Israeli occupation forces in the West Bank since October last year to over 10,900, according to Palestinian figures, including those who were briefly detained and later released.
Confrontations between Palestinian resistance groups and Israeli forces in the West Bank have been ongoing for decades, but they have significantly intensified since October 2023.
