JERUSALEM (AA) - The Israeli army arrested seven Palestinians in the occupied West Bank in overnight raids.
The army said in a Thursday press statement that it had arrested the Palestinians on suspicion of involvement in “popular terrorist activities”.
According to official Palestinian statistics, the Israeli authorities are currently holding roughly 6,500 Palestinian prisoners, most of whom hail from the Israeli-occupied West Bank.
The Israeli army frequently carries out wide-ranging arrest campaigns in the West Bank on the pretext of searching for “wanted” Palestinians.
