<p>A human rights center concerned with prisoners&#8217; issues stated that the Israeli Occupation Authorities are currently detaining 17 members of the Palestinian Legislative Council.</p>
<p>The center noted that the Israelis, yesterday, arrested and detained MP Samir El Qadi, from the Hebron town of Surif, in the Occupied West Bank,</p>
<p>The Ahrar Center for the Studies of Prisoners and Human Rights has confirmed that the number of PLC members currently detained in Israel prisons has reached 17, including 9 MPs from Hebron, in addition to two former ministers &#8211; Eisa Al Jaabari and Wasfi Qabha.</p>
<p>In a press statement, the center denounced the &#8220;rabid campaign waged by the Occupation against the legal representatives of Palestinian legitimacy in the West Bank&#8221;.</p>
<p>The center affirmed that Israel&#8217;s targeting of PLC members is only continuing because of the lack of any serious action to stop these violations. It called for a broad international campaign to expose the Occupation and end this practice.</p>
