Israeli enemy launch large-scale arrest campaign in West Bank
Ramallah - Saba:
At dawn on Wednesday, Israeli occupation forces launched a large-scale arrest and raid campaign targeting dozens of Palestinians across the West Bank, amidst an escalation in violence and a comprehensive closure of roads and entrances.
The occupation forces arrested 10 citizens from the city of Qalqilya after storming its neighborhoods and vandalizing their homes. They also raided the town of Azzun and hung warning leaflets. In Ramallah, five citizens from the town of Birzeit, including freed prisoners, were arrested. One house was converted into a military barracks.
The arrests also included 14 citizens in Salfit and 16 others in Hebron, including children and an elderly person. A young man was also arrested in Jerusalem and raided surrounding towns.
In Jenin, the occupation forces raided the towns of Burqin and Ya'bad, raided homes, and conducted field investigations. They also surrounded the Balata refugee camp in Nablus, preventing entry and exit, and turning homes into military checkpoints.
This campaign comes amid the ongoing tight blockade of the West Bank for the sixth consecutive day, transforming it into a "large prison" following the recent escalation with Iran.

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.
