The Palestinian Prisoner's Society (a Palestinian rights group that tracks detainees in Israeli custody) said in a report released Wednesday that Israeli forces have detained more than 2,000 Palestinian children since October 2023, with at least 350 currently held in what it calls harsh conditions. The group cited cases of alleged abuse, starvation and denied medical care, including a 15-year-old who had a leg amputated after contracting scabies in Ofer Prison and a 17-year-old who died in Megiddo Prison in March 2025. It called for international action to free arbitrarily detained children, noting that several US citizens have also been held without charge and that the number of children detained in Gaza remains unclear.
