RAMALLAH - 5 April 2020: The Israeli occupation kept 180 Palestinian children in detention despite frequent calls to release them amid the outbreak of the novel coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19), Palestinian Prisoner's Club said on Sunday.

The club raised alarm over putting two Palestinian children in a quarantine, instead of releasing them, according to a statement issued by the club.

Also, the club appealed to relevant international bodies, atop of which is the UNICEF, to intervene immediately to release the arrested children.
