Incarceration in Israeli lock-ups has propped up my iron will and gave me a push to continue the anti-occupation struggle Palestinian prisoner Basel Makhlouf from Tulkarem said.
“The long years I’ve spent in Israeli detention have only made me stronger” said 44-year-old Makhlouf held in Israeli jails since 2002 and sentenced to life and 40 years on charges of killing Israelis.
Speaking in a letter written behind Israeli prison bars Makhlouf said his emancipation will soon see the day thanks to the efforts made by the Palestinian resistance in Gaza.
Nearly 7000 Palestinian detainees are held in Israeli prisons among them hundreds of administrative inmates (held with neither charge nor trial) women and minors.
