  A 50-year-old woman has succumbed to her wounds in the occupied West Bank following an arrest by Israeli forces from her home two months ago.

  Wafaa Nayef Jarrar was arrested on May 21 during an Israeli operation in Jenin.

  Shortly after her arrest, Israeli forces announced that Jarrar was injured and transferred her to the Emek Medical Center in the northern Israeli city of Afula, issuing her an administrative detention order for four months.

  However, the severity of her injuries led to the amputation of her legs above the knee and a series of injuries to her body.
