Report: Over 3,300 Palestinians Arrested by Israel in West Bank Since Oct. 7

WEST BANK (KI) – Zionist troops’ raids in the West Bank since October 7 have led to over 3,300 arrests, as reported by Palestinian advocacy groups.

Israeli forces detained 35 Palestinians in the past 24 hours in the West Bank, including a 12-year-old, reported the Palestinian Prisoner’s Society (PPS) and the Prisoners’ Affairs Authority.
The total arrests since October 7 now surpass 3,325, according to a PPS Facebook post.
Amid ongoing Israeli raids in the West Bank, more than 242 Palestinians have been killed, with over 3,000 wounded since October 7. Among the fatalities are 57 children, a woman, and six prisoners who died in Israeli custody.
During the initial four days of the truce, the Zionist regime arrested at least 133 individuals from occupied East Al-Quds and the West Bank, as per Palestinian prisoner associations.
Meanwhile, Israel has detained dozens of Palestinians in the occupied West Bank and East Al-Quds as it conducts a prisoner release with Hamas, the Gaza-based armed group announced.
In the first four days of the ongoing truce, which began on Friday, Israel released 150 Palestinian prisoners – 117 children and 33 women.
Hamas released 69 captives – 51 Israelis and 18 people from other nations.
Over the same four days, Israel arrested at least 133 Palestinians from East Al-Quds and the West Bank, according to Palestinian prisoner associations.
“As long as there is occupation, the arrests will not stop. People must understand this because this is a central policy of occupation against Palestinians and to restrict any kind of resistance,” Amany Sarahneh, spokesperson for the Palestinian Prisoners Society, told Al Jazeera.
“This is a daily practice – its not just after October 7,” she continued, adding, “We actually expected more people to be arrested during these four days.”
