RAMALLAH, (PIC)
About 7,585 Palestinian citizens from the West Bank have been kidnaped by the Israeli occupation forces (IOF) since the Israeli aggression against the Gaza Strip started on October 7, 2023.
This came in a statement released by the Palestinian Commission of Detainees’ and Ex-Detainees’ Affairs and the Palestinian Prisoner Society (PPS) on Thursday.
Those detainees include people who were kidnaped from homes or checkpoints as well as those who had to turn themselves in following Israeli pressures on their families, according to the Commission and PPS.
The Commission and PPS also said that dozens of Gazan citizens remain forcibly disappeared after they were kidnaped by the Israeli occupation army from different areas of the Gaza Strip.
The Commission and PPS affirmed that the Israeli army refuses to provide international and Palestinian human rights groups with information about the fate of those detainees, pointing out that some of those detainees had been killed during their detention.
