“Escalation of political arrests in the West Bank by the PA’s security services is a crime against our Palestinian people, as this only serves the occupation and its policies,” Qassem said.
Reminding that there is a wide range of violations against Palestinian citizens in the West Bank through political arrests, suppressing freedoms, and confiscating their right to expression, Qassem said: “PA’s continued political arrest policy disregards all national considerations, especially in light of the unprecedented escalation of the Zionist colonial settlements in the West Bank.”
“A comprehensive national position is required to end the PA's behavior and prevent it from intruding on the Palestinian people's freedoms in the West Bank,” he added. (ILKHA)
