Ramallah, Palestine – Israeli occupation forces operating in central prisons are escalating their physical attacks on Palestinian political prisoners, including shooting them with rubber-coated bullets, leading to increasing injuries among the detainees, the Palestinian Prisoner’s Society (PPS) said today in a new report.
Recent visits by the lawyers of the PPS to the Naqab and Ofer central prisons continue to reveal a high level of abuse, maltreatment and torture of Palestinian detainees. This report is based on the testimonies of 36 prisoners and highlights some of these testimonies.
Along with exposing new information about attacks on detainees, the report provides further proof of ongoing systematic abuse of detainees, even during Ramadan, which has reached unprecedented levels since the genocide in Gaza began in October 2023. This includes enforced starvation, deliberately unhygienic conditions leading to skin diseases and overall low immunity, deprivation from time outside, a change of clothes, showers and cleaning supplies, as well as many other crimes being practiced against them.
