Hebrew paper: Occupation prisons linked to torture and scabies
Haaretz newspaper reveals that the conditions of Palestinian prisoners in Israeli prisons have worsened since October 2023. Practices of torture, starvation, ill-treatment, and medical neglect have increased, all within detention conditions characterized by brutality and lacking the basic elements of human dignity. Despite judicial rulings aimed at improving their conditions, prison authorities continue to impose harsh restrictions, including banning Red Cross visits and refusing to enhance healthcare services. As a result, the health of many prisoners has deteriorated, alongside physical abuses and violations against Palestinian female detainees. The total number of Palestinian prisoners in Israeli prisons has reached 9,329 individuals, with only about 16% having been convicted through court sentences. Administrative detainees constitute 34% of the total, and testimonies confirm that they have experienced torture and mistreatment, with conditions worsening especially after an increase in injuries and deaths inside the prisons.
