Tens of Palestinians inside the 1948 occupied territories have been detained for social media posts supporting Palestine, the Resistance, and Gaza.
Among those detained was the renowned singer from al-Nasira, Dalal Abu Amneh, who remained in custody for two days until she was released on bail.
Abu Amneh's lawyer, Abeer Baker, said that the singer has been under house arrest since her release and underscored that she was accused, by the occupation, of "disruptive behavior" which could allegedly "incite violence".
Baker said Abu Amneh had posted a picture of the Palestinian flag with the Arabic motto "There is no victor but God."

The "Zero tolerance policy" is aimed at silencing any support for the Palestinian Resistance, among which is Hamas, who had conducted Operation Al-Aqsa Flood to liberate occupied Palestinian territories and liberate detained Palestinian prisoners as well as break the siege strangling the Gaza Strip.
Earlier this week, Israeli Police Commissioner, Yaakov Shabtai, announced that "anyone inciting against the State of Israel, its government symbols, elected officials, military personnel and police, should be aware that the Israel Police will respond firmly and without leniency."
In that regard, Al Mayadeen's correspondent, this morning, stressed that the Israeli occupation forces arrested more than 100 Palestinians in a raid on occupied al-Quds and cities in the West Bank.
Yesterday, the Palestinian Ministry of Health announced that the number of martyrs in the West Bank rose to 81, in addition to more than 1,400 injuries.

Seven Palestinians, including four children, were martyred during confrontations with Israeli occupation forces that stormed several cities and towns overnight in the occupied West Bank, the Palestinian Health Ministry announced earlier on Friday.
Over 100 Palestinians were detained as well during the night raids, in what was described by the Israeli media as the "busiest night for the Israeli West Bank Division."

The Israeli occupation declared the camp a closed military zone on Thursday dawn and brought in a D9 military bulldozer alongside the storming forces. The dozer destroyed road infrastructure and several cars.
The occupation kept piling on its crimes, as Mahamid was forced to bleed out for around an hour, while nearby emergency services were prevented from treating and transferring him to a nearby hospital.
Israeli occupation forces employed the same tactic in Beit Lahm, where four Palestinians, including a 14-year-old child, were injured in the Dheisheh refugee camp.
Footage showed an Israeli armored truck obstructing an ambulance in one of the camp's streets.
