Israeli Occupation issues administrative detention order against Palestinian girl without charges
Ramallah – Saba:
The Israeli occupation authorities have issued a four-month administrative detention order against 17-year-old Palestinian girl Hanaa Haitham Ismail Hammad from the Hebron area, raising the number of female administrative detainees to ten out of 41 women currently held in Israeli prisons.
According to a joint statement issued Wednesday by the Commission for Detainees and Ex-Detainees Affairs and the Palestinian Prisoners Club, the occupation forces arrested Hanaa on June 9 after raiding her family's home in Al-Arroub refugee camp. During the arrest, both the girl and her mother—who was temporarily detained—were subjected to field interrogation and harsh treatment, before the mother was released later.
The statement noted an unprecedented rise in administrative detentions since the beginning of the war, with the number of administrative detainees reaching 3,562 as of early June, including approximately 95 minors under the age of 18.
It added that administrative detention has increasingly targeted various segments of Palestinian society—including women, children, and political and social activists—with at least 400 administrative detention orders issued in a single week, among thousands issued since the escalation began.
The commission and the Prisoners Club emphasized that Israeli military courts continue to legitimize administrative detention orders through what they described as 'procedural formalities', without presenting formal charges or ensuring fair trials, and under the direction of the Israeli intelligence agency (Shin Bet).
The statement further highlighted a shift in the use of administrative detention in recent years. Detainees have protested through hunger strikes and boycotting court sessions, yet the occupation has continued expanding this policy using new methods.
It is worth noting that eight administrative detainees have died in Israeli prisons since the beginning of the aggression on Gaza on October 7, 2023, among a total of 72 prisoners martyred during the same period, according to statistics from the Commission and the Prisoners Club.

Moscow: Strikes against peaceful nuclear facilities pose real, not hypothetical, threat
Moscow - Saba: Russian Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Maria Zakharova stressed that the nuclear threat in the Middle East is not merely hypothetical but carries a practical dimension. In an interview with Sputnik Radio, Zakharova said that this is a real threat facing the region and the world. Zakharova added: "All of this leads not only to escalation, but also to a direct threat to the region and the world, given that the strikes are directed against peaceful nuclear or atomic facilities. The nuclear threat is not hypothetical but has a practical dimension." Iran had previously stated that it "had, has, and will have the right" to possess peaceful nuclear facilities, which have been subjected to Israeli strikes since June 13 in a large-scale attack launched by the Israeli enemy army.

Hamas Confirms 150 martyrs in past 24 hours in 'Death Trap' Zones
Gaza – Saba: The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) confirmed on Wednesday the continuation of what it described as 'crimes committed by the terrorist Israeli army,' including its 'criminal airstrikes on residential neighborhoods across various areas of the Gaza Strip,' as well as the 'brutal targeting of starving civilians near the American-Zionist death traps set up to control humanitarian aid,' which led to the martyrdom of approximately 150 people in the past 24 hours. In a statement received by the Yemeni News Agency (Saba), the movement said: 'The systematic abuse of innocent civilians, the escalation of massacres, the targeting of the starving, forced evacuations, and the shrinking of so-called 'safe zones'—particularly in Al-Mawasi, Khan Younis—alongside the ongoing destruction and demolitions, are all classified war crimes and part of a genocidal war that has continued for nearly 20 months.' Hamas renewed its call on 'Arab and Islamic countries, the United Nations, and its agencies to break their silence on these horrific violations and to take urgent action to halt the aggression, provide relief to our people, and end the bloody Zionist mechanism controlling humanitarian aid.' The movement also called for 'the United Nations and its humanitarian and relief agencies to be the sole trusted and safe channel for delivering aid to our people in the Gaza Strip—away from the domination of the occupation and its suspicious tools.'
