Palestinian prisoners continue their disobedience steps on 14th day

Monday 27-February-2023

The Palestinian prisoners in Israeli jails have continued on Monday the 14th day of their disobedience steps which they staged in protest against the Israeli punitive measures.

As part of their escalating protest program the prisoners decided today to stage sit-ins in their prison yards while wearing the prison uniform.

Last week the Captive Movement declared a set of protest steps in all Israeli prisons that include a mass disobedience and an open hunger strike next Ramadan.

According to the announcement the protest steps were in rejection of the Israeli punitive measures imposed against the prisoners since the right-wing minister Itamar Ben-Gvir was sworn in as national security minister in the new Israeli government.

The statement pointed out that the Palestinian prisoners are readying themselves for organized disobedience which they anticipate will escalate into a full-scale hunger strike.
