With every event of resistance by Palestinians, the Israeli occupation uses the tactic of mass arrests and increased brutality of Palestinians prisoners since the start of the occupation. As mentioned, with time the intensity of the brutality and arrests only increases as a form of punishment and as a way to suppress the resistance with an aim to control all aspects of Palestinian lives and punishment of a whole society. This is exactly the case since the 7th of October, following the Israeli aggression against Palestinians. Since October 7th up until January 23, 2024, the number of Palestinians detained by the Israeli occupation has only increased with the total number of arrest campaigns exceeding 6220. The majority of arrests came from the Hebron governorate with the number surpassing 1000 arrests. The arrest campaigns do not discriminate as they consist of women, children, elderly, journalists, and University students alike.
