Israeli Knesset blocks Red Cross prison visits

The Israeli Knesset's General Assembly failed to pass a bill that would ban the entry of Red Cross representatives into its prisons and visiting Palestinian prisoners. The proposal received support from 36 members, while 41 opposed it, and it was met with a boycott from Haredi parties. This came after the Israeli Supreme Court ruling that the government's policy of blocking Red Cross visits was illegal. The government aimed, through this legislation, to reduce security risks associated with allowing external entities into detention centers. Despite backing from some parties, political disagreements and differing perspectives within the coalition led to the bill's defeat, amidst widespread human rights criticisms over the undermining of international oversight concerning the conditions of Palestinian prisoners in Israeli jails.
