RNA - The report, which was issued by a group of governmental and non-governmental Palestinian rights groups, documented the violations of the Israeli occupation against Palestinian prisoners and their families during March, Middle East Monitor reported.
There were nearly 6,500 Palestinian prisoners inside Israeli jails in February, including 54 women, eight girls and 350 boys, according to the report.
In addition, the report said that the Israeli occupation authorities issued 81 administrative detention orders since the start of 2018, including 34 new orders. This, according to the report, brought the number of prisoners under administrative detention to 500.
