Khaberni - The Prisoners Media Office revealed that Palestinian prisoner Jamal Al-Taweel is subjected to systematic oppression and beating inside Ofer Prison, after he refused to say the word "thank you" in Hebrew to a member of the prison administration.
On October 27, Israeli occupation forces rearrested Hamas leader Jamal Al-Taweel after raiding his home in the Umm Al-Sharayet neighborhood in the central West Bank city of Al-Bireh, adding this new arrest to his previous arrests totaling over 19 years in detention.
The occupation had released Al-Taweel (61 years old), as part of the fifth batch of the exchange deal during the first phase of the ceasefire agreement on January 19, before rearresting him.
In the same context, sources for Al-Arabi TV indicated that Ibrahim Hamed, the commander of the Al-Qassam Brigades in the West Bank, was subjected to violent assaults inside Israeli prisons in recent weeks.
The sources clarified that the Israeli Prison Service raided isolation cells on October 30, and launched a wide-ranging assault campaign affecting a number of prisoners in several sections.
Message of Intimidation to Palestinian Prisoners
The Prisoners Media Office called on the international community and human rights organizations to urgently act to rescue Palestinian prisoners from the policies of mistreatment and deliberate medical neglect practiced by the prison administration.
For her part, Amani Sarahneh, Director of Media and Documentation at the Commission of Detainees and Ex-Detainees Affairs, stated to Al-Arabi TV, that what prisoner Ibrahim Hamed is subjected to is a message of intimidation directed at the leaders of the prisoner movement inside Israeli jails, underscoring that these practices reflect a serious escalation in the policy of systematic repression against the prisoners.
In Israeli prisons, there are more than 10,000 Palestinian prisoners, including children and women, who suffer from torture, starvation, and medical neglect, many of whom have been killed, according to Palestinian and Israeli human rights and media reports.
