Dozens of settlers stormed the courtyards of Al-Aqsa Mosque to celebrate the Jewish holiday of Purim. In parallel, the occupation forces escalated their campaigns of arrests and raids in the West Bank.

The number of Palestinian detainees in the occupied West Bank has risen to 7,770 since October 7, after the Israeli army arrested 15 Palestinians on Monday night. Israel is waging a devastating war on the Gaza Strip that has left tens of thousands of martyrs and wounded, most of them children and women.
