Friday 17-March-2023

The Palestinian prisoners in Israeli jails entered on Friday day 32 of their disobedience steps which they staged in protest at the arbitrary punitive measures that were taken against them recently at the behest of far-right security minister Itamar Ben Gvir.

The prisoners threatened to set fire to the prison cells in response to the Israeli recent punitive measures against them.

The prisoners had earlier declared a set of protest steps in all Israeli prisons last month that include a mass disobedience and an open hunger strike next Ramadan.

Around 4780 Palestinian citizens including 29 women 160 children and 941 administrative detainees are currently held in Israeli prisons.
