Israeli occupation government has issued 98 administrative detention orders in July 2021, the Palestinian Commission of Detainees’ and ex-Detainees’ Affairs said on Tuesday. The Commission said in a statement today that the occupation authorities issued 98 administrative detention orders in July 2021, 38 of the orders were issued against Palestinian detainees for the first time, while 60 detainees had their administrative detention renewed. Administrative detention is illegal under international law, however, the occupation state uses it to repress the Palestinian people. ‘Israel’ routinely uses administrative detention and has, over the years, placed thousands of Palestinians behind bars for periods ranging from several months to several years, without charging them, without telling them what they are accused of, and without disclosing the alleged evidence to them or to their lawyers. There are 4,850 Palestinian political prisoners held in Israeli jails, among the prisoners are 540 administrative detainees held without charge or trial, 225 child prisoners and 41 female prisoners. In June only, 615 Palestinians, including 92 minors and 24 women, were detained by Israeli occupation, while 100 administrative detention orders were issued. In 2020 only, the Israeli occupation forces arrested 4,634 Palestinians, among them 543 children and 128 women, in addition to issuing 1,114 administrative detention orders. By the end of March 2021, the number of Palestinian prisoners and detainees reached 4,450, including 37 women, 140 children, and 440 administrative detainees. By the end of May 2021, the number of Palestinian prisoners and detainees in Israeli jails reached 4,277 Palestinians, including 435 administrative detainees.
