More than 11,900 Palestinians have been detained by Israel since the beginning of the Israeli war on Gaza, the Palestinian Prisoner’s Society said, according to Al Jazeera.

The group said the figure includes 790 children and 136 journalists, and added that at least 47 Palestinians have died in Israeli custody.

This past weekend, Ayman al-Salaymeh became the youngest Palestinian prisoner at the age of 14 years old. His charge was throwing stones at Israeli settlers.
