Israeli military courts rejected appeals filed by 42 Palestinians held in administrative detention, Shehab Wire reported. The detainees challenge orders that permit authorities to hold them without trial for renewable periods.
The rejections occur amid ongoing scrutiny of Israel's detention practices. Palestinian and international rights groups have documented cases in which detainees spend months or years in custody without formal charges or trial proceedings.
