12 years old. Palestinian. On his way to school. Arrested instead. This is not an isolated case. Every year, 500–700 Palestinian children are detained and prosecuted—in military courts. Denied rights. Starved. Tortured. Sexually abused. This is life under jewish occupation.

Right now, 1:45am local time, settler militias are raiding more than 9 Palestinian villages in the occupied West Bank. From Bethlehem all the way to Nablus, settler pograms are happening everywhere. This began at 12am local time and has not yet stopped 1:45am 3/22/26.

51 percent of Palestinian child detainees are held in Israeli prisons without charge or trial — the highest number and highest proportion on record since DCIP began monitoring in 2008 351 Palestinian children are detained in Israeli prisons as of December 31, 2025, with 180 of them being held in administrative detention. The Israeli Prison Service, which typically releases detainee data quarterly, was over two months late publishing the figures. DCIP has gathered firsthand testimonies from previously detained children describing systematic torture, beatings, solitary confinement, and denial of food, water and medical care. Israel has barred the International Committee of the Red Cross from visiting any Palestinian detainees since October 7, 2023. Lawyers representing child detainees report escalating barriers to legal access, with some children who have attempted to send messages to their families through lawyers have been beaten.
