🔴 49 Percent of All Palestinian Political Prisoners Held Arbitrarily Without Trial or Charge

Ramallah, occupied Palestine –The Israeli occupation’s Supreme Court decision to uphold the detention of Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya is a stark example of the policy of mass arbitrary detention that has targeted thousands of Palestinians abducted by occupation forces from the Gaza Strip, the Palestinian Prisoner's Society (PPS) said in a statement on Wednesday. Hundreds remain incarcerated under the so-called "Unlawful Combatants Law," which has become a legal tool for institutionalizing open-ended detention outside the fundamental guarantees of justice and international law.

The occupation’s Supreme Court ruling is part of a long series of policies reflecting the extent of complicity of the Israeli judicial system in entrenching the ongoing genocidal treatment of Palestinian political prisoners. This complicity is manifested in granting legal legitimacy to the continued arbitrary detention of thousands of Palestinians. While those arrested from Gaza are held under the “unlawful combatants law,” Palestinians from the occupied West Bank, Jerusalem and the 1948-territories, are held under “administrative detention” which operates in a similar fashion of keeping detainees indefinitely held without trial or charge.
