Demonstrators carried photos of detainees and banners in support of Gaza, voicing calls for action to stop the war.

Speaking to Anadolu, Fadwa Barghouti, wife of prominent Palestinian political prisoner Marwan Barghouti, emphasized the resilience of detainees and urged greater solidarity with their cause.

According to Palestinian figures, more than 18,000 people have been detained by the Israeli army in the West Bank since the start of the Gaza war in October 2023.

Illegal settlers carried out 466 attacks against Palestinians and their property across the West Bank in July alone, resulting in the death of four people and the forced displacement of two Bedouin communities comprising 50 Palestinian families, according to the Palestinian Colonization and Wall Resistance Commission.

At least 1,014 Palestinians have been killed and more than 7,000 injured in the West Bank by Israeli forces and illegal settlers since October 2023, the Palestinian Health Ministry said.

In a landmark opinion last July, the International Court of Justice declared Israel’s occupation of Palestinian territory illegal, demanding the evacuation of all settlements in the West Bank and East Jerusalem.
