The Palestinian Prisoners Society said Tuesday that the number of Palestinians arrested by Israel in the West Bank since the Israel-Hamas war began on Oct. 7 has risen to more than 3,290.
The list includes 125 women and 145 children, the group said.
At least 168 Palestinians have been detained in the five days during the ongoing humanitarian pause in the Gaza Strip.
Six Palestinian detainees have died in Israeli prisons since the conflict started, it added.
Israel launched a massive military campaign in the Gaza Strip following a cross-border attack by Hamas on Oct. 7.
It has since killed over 15,000 people, including 6,150 children and 4,000 women, according to health authorities in the enclave.
The official Israeli death toll stands at 1,200.
