Rights groups say Israel issued 180 administrative detention orders in 15 days

Palestinian human rights organisations say Israeli authorities have sharply increased the use of administrative detention against Palestinian detainees, issuing more than 180 detention orders within just 15 days. In a joint statement released on Wednesday, the Commission of Detainees and Ex-Detainees Affairs and the Palestinian Prisoners Club said Israeli authorities were continuing a dangerous escalation in the use of detention without charge or trial. According to the statement, legal teams recorded more than 180 administrative detention orders during the period, including orders against three female detainees: Suad al-Khawaja, held for two months, and former prisoner Abeer Odeh and Malak Marai, each held for four months.
