Palestinian administrative detainees in Israeli jails continue to boycott Israeli courts for the 18th day in a row as a protest step against their detention conditions.
The detainees on 15th February started an open-ended boycott of Israeli military courts in protest at their detention without charge or trial.
They called in a statement for bringing their cases to the International Criminal Court and making every possible effort at all levels to put an end to the injustice they are exposed to.
The Palestinian Prisoner Society said that there are currently 450 administrative detainees in Israeli lock-ups some of whom have had their detention renewed several times and some others have been incarcerated for 14 straight years without charge or trial.
The Israeli occupation authorities issued 1248 administrative detention orders in 2015 1742 in 2016 and 1060 in 2017 according to the Society’s data.
