Days of Palestine, West Bank -Israeli occupation has issued and renewed 191 administrative detention orders against Palestinians since start of 2016, NGO revealed on Monday.

The Palestinian Prisoners’ Centre for Studies said in a statement that the Israeli occupation has carried out mass arrest campaigns against Palestinian youths and due to the lack of charges, they were given prison terms without trials.

According to the statement, the Israeli occupation also renewed the administrative detention of a number of Palestinian prisoners, who have been held on “secret charges.”

The majority of the prisoners, 71, are from the occupied West Bank city of Al-Khalil, while 33 are from Ramallah, 24 are from Jerusalem, 15 from Jenin while the remainder are from other areas across the occupied West Bank.
