Israeli special forces afternoon Friday stormed section 10 in the Nafha jail and violently attacked the Palestinian detainees.
Palestinian prisoners’ spokesman in section 10 Ashraf Hanaysha said the Israeli troops broke into Palestinian prison cells and attacked life-sentenced Muslim imam (preacher) Nasser Salah from Bethlehem.
The Israeli soldiers aggressively assaulted the imam before they transferred him to an isolated cell on account of incitement to anti-occupation protests and support for the detainees’ hunger strike expected to kick off on April 17.
The prisoners’ spokesman added that fights broke out between the Palestinian inmates and the Israeli wardens. Other Israeli troops showed up on the scene shortly afterwards.
