As known, Israel is currently being protested by many countries in the world for its actions to oppress the Palestinian people.
Israeli army attacks have occurred every day in the West Bank since the war began. According to the Palestinian Prisoners Society (PPS) and the Prisoners Affairs Authority, Israeli soldiers arrested 35 Palestinians in the occupied West Bank in the past 24 hours, including a 12-year-old child.
The total number of people arrested since October 7, 2023 reaches tens of thousands, PPS said.
At least 242 Palestinians, including more than 50 children, have been killed in the occupied West Bank since October 7. More than 2,750 people have been injured.
