A group of Palestinian women, who have been recently released from Israeli jails within the temporary humanitarian truce agreement between Hamas and Israel, revealed that they were subjected to violations and horrific suffering in Israeli prisons over years of captivity.
The freed women confirmed that Israeli oppressive violations have escalated since the beginning of the Israeli aggression on Gaza on October 7. They reported being deprived of basic rights such as having enough portions of food to the extent that many of them had fainted in jail. They were insulted, beaten, and abused, and TVs were withdrawn from their rooms, they added.
Fatima Amarneh, one of the released women, said that she was beaten and abused immediately after her arrest at the hands of Israeli soldiers who strangled her with her veil until she had lost consciousness.
She added that the interrogator began assaulting her before even talking to her and that she was threatened with rape. She expressed her great joy at gaining her freedom.
As for Sarah Abdullah, another freed woman, she expressed her pride in Hamas Movement, its leader in the Gaza Strip, Yahya Al-Sinwar, and the leader of Al-Qassam Brigades, the Movement’s armed wing, Muhammad Al-Deif for supporting the detained women until their release.
For her part, the liberated prisoner Shorouk Dwayyat said that her happiness for being released was mixed with pain and sorrow for the martyrs who have fallen in the Israeli aggression on Gaza, stressing that complete joy would be celebrated when resistance wins the battle and the war on the Gaza Strip comes to an end.
