Severe Deterioration in Conditions
Palestinian prisoner organizations have meanwhile reported increasingly severe health and living conditions inside Israeli detention facilities.
Their findings, based on testimonies from detainees, describe severe shortages of food and hygiene products, denial of medical treatment and overcrowded prison sections.
Some prisoners, including detainees suffering from illnesses or previous injuries, have lost substantial amounts of weight because of inadequate food.
Prisoner organizations have also documented the spread of scabies among detainees amid shortages of hygiene products and deteriorating sanitary conditions.
The combination of inadequate nutrition, overcrowding, disease and restricted access to medical care has further weakened detainees already suffering from existing health conditions.

Escalating Prison Repression
Conditions for Palestinian detainees have deteriorated sharply since October 7, 2023, with prisoner organizations documenting restrictions on food, medical treatment, hygiene and other basic necessities.
The latest raid at Ganot comes as new evidence has also emerged from within Israel’s prison system concerning the routine use of severe violence against Palestinian prisoners.
WhatsApp messages and investigative testimony recently reported by Haaretz revealed Israeli prison guards describing repeated beatings as “routine,” including accounts of severe injuries and violence carried out with the knowledge or involvement of commanding officers.

Adolf, who???
The Israeli ” Jewish ” Nazis are the scummiest people ever born. Adolf Hitler was a saint compared to these animals. No, he did not kill 6 million Jews. No, he did not burn them in ovens. He relocated millions of them to Palestine.
None of them do anything to stop their Zionist leaders, therefore they are guilty by association.
To hell with WASrael!
