More than two dozen women detained in Israeli prisons

The Palestinian Prisoners’ Club has said that the number of female prisoners “administratively” detained by Israel has risen to 25, Al Jazeera reports.

“Among the administratively detained female prisoners are four female journalists and a lawyer,” the right group said.

Female administrative detainees are among 82 women detained in Damoun Prison, it added, noting this figure doesn’t include all female detainees in Gaza camps “as a result of the continuing crime of enforced disappearance”.
