Israeli occupation forces have issued 48 administrative detention orders for the imprisonment of Palestinians without charge or trial between 16 and 30 November. This follows on 24 more administrative detention orders issued in the first two weeks of the month.
Palestinian lawyer Mahmoud al-Halabi said on Sunday, 3 December that 15 of the orders were newly issued while the remainder were renewals of the orders against Palestinians who had already spent years or months detained without charge or trial.
Administrative detention orders are used to imprison Palestinians without charge or trial. Issued for one to six months at a time, these orders are indefinitely renewable. Palestinians have spent years at a time jailed under administrative detention. There are over 450 Palestinians out of a total of over 6,200 Palestinian political prisoners jailed without charge or trial under administrative detention.
Among the orders issued were those against former long-term hunger striker Ayman al-Tabeesh, also ordered held in isolation. He has been imprisoned without charge or trial since August 2016. An order was also renewed against Salah al-Khawaja, of the village of Nil’in, one day before he was to be released. Khawaja has now been on hunger strike for the past 21 days against his imprisonment without charge or trial.
