Sunday 28-May-2023

Israeli prison forces broke into and ransacked cells in Nafha jail on Sunday provoking tension with Palestinian prisoners.

According to Asra Media Office a state of tension with the prisoners took place in Nafha jail after forces from the Israeli prison service (IPS) raided the cells of section 12 and brutalized prisoners.

At the behest of Israeli far-right security minister Itamar Ben Gvir the Israeli prison service launched in recent months provocative raids on cells in its jails with the aim of creating instability among Palestinian prisoners.

Immediately after his appointment as a security minister Ben Gvir pledged to make the incarceration conditions for the Palestinian prisoners in Israeli jails during his tenure worse than before.
