Muslim Network TV news:
Around 240 Palestinian women have been detained by Israeli forces in the West Bank and Israel since October.
According to a local nongovernmental organization, this year has been the bloodiest for Palestinian women.
Marking International Women’s Day on Friday, the Palestinian Prisoner Society said targeting Palestinian women has been one of the most prominent and systematic policies of the Israeli occupation.
The NGO said there are no exact estimates of the number of Palestinian women detained by the Israeli army in Gaza.
According to one estimate, some 60 Palestinian women prisoners from Gaza are languishing in Israeli prisons.
