The Israeli military has carried out a new wave of overnight raids across the occupied West Bank, detaining at least 30 Palestinians. This update was confirmed by the Palestinian Prisoner Society and the Commission of Detainees' Affairs in a joint statement released early Monday.

The arrests reportedly form part of what Palestinian officials describe as a "systematic campaign of collective punishment," ongoing since the escalation of conflict began. The military operations included field interrogations of residents and random house searches, sparking concern among rights groups.

Heavy raids were focused on Al-Fawwar refugee camp, located in the Hebron governorate, where dozens of families were awakened by the sounds of armored vehicles and soldiers entering homes. Detainees were taken without formal charges, according to local residents.

Other cities affected by the sweep include Ramallah, Bethlehem, Nablus, Tubas, Salfit, Tulkarem, and Qalqilya. In each area, reports emerged of property damage, confiscated phones, and youths being taken into custody.

Palestinian families and advocacy groups have condemned the arrests, urging international intervention to stop what they label as war crimes under occupation. The growing number of detainees is adding to the already overcrowded Israeli prisons, many of which are holding Palestinians under administrative detention without trial.

As tensions continue, humanitarian organizations call for immediate protection of civilian populations in the West Bank. The international community is being urged to address violations and ensure that legal rights of detainees are respected under international law.
