183 Palestinians were released from Israeli prisons as part of the Hamas-Israel ceasefire agreement. They showed signs of years of detention as they emerged in stained, grey prison jumpsuits.
Before being cheered through the crowd and brought back to their families, a few of them appeared worn out and frail as they made the short walk from the bus to the European Hospital in Khan Younis, Gaza.
The organization stated in a statement that “every time prisoners are released, we find the prisoners’ bodies reflecting the level of crimes committed against them, including torture that is unprecedented in its level after October 7, starvation crimes, systematic medical crimes, and the infected a number of them with scabies, as well as the severe beatings that the prisoners were subject to before their release, which continued for days according to many of their testimonies, and which in some cases led to rib fractures,” the organization said in
The Prisoner’s Society “proves once more that the occupation organized terrorism against the released prisoners and their families,” according to The Prisoner’s Society, who used a number of methods to be monitored, the most prominent being the severe beatings that the prisoners were subjected to and the threats that, if any reception party was held or if the family showed any signs of reception, led to the arrest of the suspects.
One of the Palestinians who has been released said, “We have been subjected to the most brutal torture… the Israelis have treated us inhumanely.” Better than we, they treated animals.
Red Cross employees complained to Al Jazeera about the treatment of the recently released prisoners from Ketziot Prison on Saturday.
Palestinian detainees were handcuffed with their hands above their heads and given a band that read, “The people of eternity does not forget,” according to their accounts.
Hamas said the “abuse and torture” Palestinian prisoners endured “confirms the ugliness of what]they] are subjected to” in Israeli prisons.
Despite the conditions in Gaza, including Israel’s relentless bombing and attacks that have claimed more than 47, 000 lives in the besieged enclave since October 2023, it added in a statement that its armed wing, the Qassam Brigades, continued to provide the necessary healthcare to Israeli prisoners.
The group claimed that the criminal occupation commits the most heinous violations against our prisoners in jails while the good physical and psychological condition of the enemy’s prisoners demonstrates the values of our resistance and its moral commitment to the prisoners.
Hussam Shahin, a Palestinian, will undergo anesthesia-free surgery while he is incarcerated, according to sources who spoke to Al Jazeera.
