The center slammed the abduction of Jawhar and considered it as another Israeli violation against human rights groups and activists in the occupied territories.

Jawhar, 30, is one of the main female activists in defending Human Rights and the rights of the Palestinian detainees imprisoned by Israel. She was never arrested before this incident.

The Center states in a press release that Israel recently arrested several residents on roadblock and during attacks against Palestinian homes.

The Center voiced an appeal to International Human Rights groups to intervene and expose the Israeli violations in the occupied territories, and the violations against all detainees.
