Institutions concerned with Palestinian detainees’ affairs said Israeli occupation forces detained 1,236 Palestinian citizens, including 30 women and 73 children, in the occupied West Bank in January 2024.

The highest number of detentions targeted occupied al-Quds, with 309 detentions recorded, followed by al-Khalil Governorate with 220 arrests, whereas Tulkarm Governorate saw 150 detention cases.

The prisoners' affairs institutions explained that, in light of the continued aggression on Gaza, the total number of detentions since October 7 in the West Bank to date amounted to 6,870, including more than 215 women and 400 children.

Meanwhile, the number of journalists detained since October 7 reached 52, with 37 of them, including two female journalists, still in detention.
