Netanyahu orders prisons to prepare for large inrush of Palestinian inmates in 2024
[IsraelTimes] Activists claim administrative prisoner population has nearly doubled since October 7; Israel says most arrests of terror suspects made in Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response...
 since October 7

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu ordered government ministries on Sunday to prepare prisons for an influx of thousands of inmates, according to a statement from the premier’s office.
A sensible precaution, given current trends.
During a meeting with representatives from the ministries of defense, national security, and finance, the IDF and Shin Bet presented estimates showing that thousands of murderous Moslems are expected to be arrested in 2024, which will lead to a lack of space in the prisons if preparations are not made.

Since the beginning of the war between Israel and Hamas
...always the voice of sweet reason...
, about 4,000 arrests of terror suspects have been made, the majority of them in Gaza.
Those aren’t arrests, they’re captured prisoners of the war Hamas & friends started.
The Israel Prison Service presented both short-term and medium-term plans for the expected increase, which Netanyahu approved, the statement said.

Last Thursday, the IDF and Shin Bet said some 40 Paleostinian suspects held under administrative detention had been released in a move aimed at freeing up space "for detainees of a higher threat level."
That’s a grand total of 1% — ot much freed space.
A statement put out by the organizations noted the released suspects had been slated to be freed in the coming month.

Administrative detention is a controversial tool whereby Paleostinian terror suspects and, more rarely, Jewish terror suspects, are detained without charge or trial. The tool is typically used when authorities have intelligence tying a suspect to a crime but do not have enough evidence for charges to stand up in a court of law.

The detentions must be renewed by a military court every six months, and prisoners can remain in jail for years under the mechanism. Israel says administrative detention is a tool that helps keep dangerous murderous Moslems off the streets and allows the government to hold suspects without divulging sensitive intelligence. Critics say the policy denies suspects and prisoners due process.

While some Paleostinians are detained without known charges, the most common grounds for arrest range from online calls for violence to alleged terrorist activity.

Activists estimated in February that the number of Paleostinian prisoners in Israeli jails had swelled to around 9,000, from about 5,200 before Hamas’s October 7 attack on Israel.
Sure, but “activists” routinely add 1+1 and get 50,000. I believe the Israeli numbers.
Israeli prison authorities announced a state of emergency after October 7 to prevent the potential involvement of inmates in violence and further unrest.
