An Israeli human rights group says that Israel is holding over 1,000 Palestinian detainees without charge or trial, the highest number since 2003.
Israel is holding over 1,000 Palestinian detainees without charge or trial, the highest number since 2003, an Israeli human rights group said Tuesday.
HaMoked, an Israeli rights group that regularly gathers figures from prison authorities, said that as of April, there were 1,016 detainees held in administrative detention. Nearly all of them are Palestinians detained under military law, as administrative detention is very rarely used against Jews. Four Israeli Jews are currently being held without charge.“There is no sense of when the nightmare will end,” said 48-year-old Manal Abu Bakr in Dheisheh, a refugee camp nearcity of Bethlehem.
HaMoked says 2,416 Palestinians are serving sentences after being convicted in Israeli military courts. An additional 1,409 detainees are being held for questioning, have been charged and are awaiting trial, or are currently being tried.Israeli lawmakers have repealed a 2005 act that saw four Jewish settlements in the occupied West Bank dismantled when it withdrew from the Gaza Strip.
“The numbers are shocking,” said Jessica Montell, the director of HaMoked. “There are no restraints on the use of what should be a rare exception. It’s just getting easier and easier for them to hold people with no charge or trial.”

At many Passover Seders, Israel unrest will be on the tableThis year, when the slavery-to-freedom story of Passover unfolds, mass demonstrations in Israel will be top of mind for many Jews around the globe. One Seder host plans to recite portions of Israel's Declaration of Independence. Others will connect the traditional symbols on the Seder plate to current divisions over Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's proposed judicial overhaul. In North America, where the largest number of Jews outside of Israel live, Seder leaders consider the observance a perfect vehicle for discussion of Israel today. Netanyahu leads the most right-wing government in Israeli history. Tens of thousands of people in Israel have turned out in repeated protests against changes that would dilute the independence of judges.
