Thousands of Israelis have taken to the streets calling for the release of hostages being held in Gaza by Hamas. They have also called for PM Netanyahu to resign.
Israeli forces on Sunday arrested Dalal and Fatima Arouri, sisters of slain Hamas terror leader Saleh Arouri, along with several other family members.
Israel claimed that Saleh Arouri had helped plan Hamas' deadly October 7 attack on southern Israel. He was killed in a suspected Israeli drone strike in a suburb of Beirut, Lebanon, on January 2.
The women were arrested at two different West Bank locations. Israeli authorities said they were guilty of inciting "terrorism against the state of Israel."
According to the the Palestinian Prisoners' Club, a Palestinian advocacy group, Israel has arrested 5,875 Palestinians in the West Bank since October 7.
