Israel has arrested over 100 more Palestinians in the West Bank, bringing the total number of arrested Palestinians since Oct. 7 to 1,050, the Palestinian Prisoner’s Society said on Saturday.

“The occupation forces arrested over 100 Palestinians from the cities and towns of the West Bank, including East Jerusalem,” Amani Sarhana, a spokesperson for the society, told Anadolu, adding: “Leaders of Hamas were among the detainees.”

It said that the arrest campaign covered all cities of West Bank and “leaders of Hamas were among the detainees.”


Meanwhile, witnesses told Anadolu that the Israeli army launched an arrest campaign in the town of Aroura, north of Ramallah, and turned the house of Saleh Al-Arouri, the deputy dead of the Hamas political bureau, “into a military site.”
