Human Rights Center: Occupation Uses Heatwaves to Worsen Prisoner Suffering
Palestine Center for Prisoners' Studies has highlighted the deteriorating conditions of Palestinian prisoners in occupation prisons amid rising temperatures, as the prison administration exploits heatwaves to tighten punitive measures. Since October 2023, the occupation has withdrawn fans and prevented windows from being opened, resulting in suffocating detention environments that threaten the health of detainees, especially the sick, the elderly, and children, due to poor ventilation and increased overcrowding. Approximately 9,400 prisoners face harsh detention conditions, and international and human rights organizations are calling for swift intervention to halt these violations and ensure detention conditions that comply with international standards.
