<p style="font-size:10pt;">GAZA, (PIC)&#8211; The Israeli occupation  authority (IOA) has arrested 12,000 Palestinian females since its  occupation of the remaining Palestinian lands in 1967, Abdul Nasser  Farwana, a researcher in prisoners affairs, said.</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">He added in a statement that the IOA is  currently holding 35 Palestinian women in Hasharon and Damon prisons  while the only detainee from Gaza, Wafa&#8217;a Al-Biss, is held in solitary  confinement in Ramle jail.</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">He said that the Israeli occupation forces  rounded up about 850 Palestinian females in the period since the Aqsa  intifada in 2000 until the current year of 2011.</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">Farwana noted that the IOA does not  differentiate in its treatment of prisoners whether on the basis of sex,  age, social or political status, or even health and humanitarian  conditions and exercise all forms of psychological and physical torture  on all prisoners.</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">Female prisoners are subjected to the same  treatment of male prisoners including torture, isolation, humiliation,  physical assault, and sometimes molestation, the researcher underlined.</p>
