Statistics on Palestinian minors in the custody of Israeli security forces

Since October 2020, the IPS has stopped providing B’Tselem with figures in response to requests under the Freedom of Information Law.

At the end of September 2020, 157 Palestinian minors were held in Israeli prisons as security detainees and prisoners, at least two of whom were held in administrative detention. Another 2 Palestinian minors were held in Israel Prison Service facilities for being in Israel illegally. The IPS considers these minors – both detainees and prisoners – criminal offenders.

In addition, a small number of minors are held in IDF-run facilities for short periods of time.

*Due to IPS policy as of May 2020 not to provide B'Tselem with figures under 5, the overall number of detainees and prisoners, as provided B'Tselem, may not match the sum total of detainees and prisoners in the various categories.

B'Tselem petitioned the Central District Court to revoke this policy.

The following figures were provided by the Israeli military and the IPS.

* The diagram represents the number of Palestinian minors in custody on a given day, according to figures we received for that day, as detailed in the tables below. We do not have figures available for the overall number of minors in custody in a given month.

Data on minors in IPS custody in previous years

Data on minors in IDF custody in previous years

Notes:

Beginning in August 2008, the figures include Palestinian prisoners who are residents of East Jerusalem. In its figures for previous months and years, the IPS did not include these prisoners in their figures on Palestinian prisoners.
The statistics presented above indicate the number of Palestinian minors who are residents of the Occupied Territories held by the IPS and the IDF on the specific date listed. B'Tselem does not have statistics on the total number of minors held by the IDF in a particular month. B'Tselem also does not have statistics on minors held by the Israeli Police.
The figures from the military are received with a significant time delay and – with the exception of administrative detainees, whose status is noted as such – provide few details regarding inmates’ legal standing. According to the IDF Spokesperson, the majority of inmates – apart from a handful of individuals who have been tried and are serving sentences – are detainees. As we do not have this numerical breakdown at our disposal, the total number of inmates in military custody (with the exception of administrative detainees) is given under the heading “detainees”.
* = No statistics provided.
The statistics do not include individuals held on criminal counts.
The figures were provided to B'Tselem by the IPS and the IDF, who are responsible for their accuracy.
