In a joint statement, the organizations, including the Palestinian Center for Human Rights, said Israeli authorities are forcibly displacing hundreds of Palestinians arrested in Gaza, including dozens of women.
On Sunday, the Palestinian Prisoners Society said Israeli prison authorities are holding 142 Palestinian females, including infants.
The statement urged the relevant authorities to intervene to reveal their names and fate as well as to stop abuses and torture while arbitrarily arresting Palestinians in Gaza.
According to the human rights organizations, the Israeli army is arresting Palestinians in mass from their homes or shelters, especially in the northern Gaza Strip.
The Palestinians are being forced to strip off their clothes and to stand in queues in an insulting manner before being taken to unknown locations, the statement added.
The organizations urged international human rights organizations to pressure Israeli authorities to release the arbitrarily arrested Palestinians.
On Monday, eyewitnesses told Anadolu the Israeli army stormed a number of schools in the Al-Faluja area of Jabalia in the northern Gaza Strip and kicked the women and children out and arrested the men.
At least 18,205 Palestinians have been killed and more than 49,645 others injured in relentless air and ground attacks on the Gaza Strip since Oct. 7, following a cross-border attack by the Palestinian group Hamas.
