Palestinian institutions call for global response to prisoner law
Palestinian prisoners' institutions have called for a halt to the law of executing Palestinian prisoners and for the immediate release of all detainees. They also demanded international investigations into acts of torture and killing inside Israeli detention centers. They emphasized that the death penalty has become part of daily practices against prisoners through slow death policies and direct assassinations, which have led to the martyrdom of at least 92 prisoners since October 2023. Additionally, the Israeli Knesset approved a law in March that punishes the killing of Israelis and includes the imposition of the death penalty on Palestinian prisoners, with reduced requirements for issuing such sentences. The institutions urge urgent international action beyond mere verbal condemnations, calling for legal and political measures to protect prisoners' lives, uncover the fate of detainees, and hold accountable those responsible for violations.
