The number of Palestinian children detained without charge in the occupied West Bank has nearly quadrupled since last year
Israel’s Defense Ministry announced on 22 November the end of administrative detention for illegal settlers in the occupied West Bank, as Palestinians – particularly minors – continue to suffer under the controversial policy.
“In a reality where the Jewish settlement in Judea and Samaria is subject to serious Palestinian terror threats and unjustified international sanctions are taken against the settlers, it is not appropriate for the State of Israel to take such a severe measure against the people of the settlements,” newly appointed Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz announced on Friday.
“If there is suspicion of criminal acts, the perpetrators can be prosecuted, and if not, there are other preventive measures that can be taken other than administrative detention orders,” the defense minister added.
He also said he condemns “any phenomenon of violence against Palestinians and taking the law into one’s own hands, and [he] also appeal[s] to the settlement leadership to take a similar public position and express an unequivocal position on the issue.”
Administrative detention is, in the majority of cases, used against Palestinians but has, at times, been applied to extremist Israeli settlers. Under the policy, people can be held without charge for up to six months, and detention can be renewed indefinitely.
