Israeli forces carry out training raids on cells of Hamas prisoners

Tuesday 20-April-2021

Israeli prison forces on Tuesday morning carried out provocative simulated raids on cells of Hamas prisoners in the Ofer jail.

According to Asra Media Office prison forces violently stormed sections of the Ofer jail where Hamas prisoners are held and carried out drills inside them.

Consequently such practice provoked tension inside the jail and raised the ire of the prisoners who may respond by taking protest steps.

Asra Media quoted the Captive Movement in Israeli jails as saying that what happened in the morning in the Ofer jail was “a blatant violation of the inviolability of the holy month of Ramadan and an assault on the prisoners.”

The Palestinian prisoners in the Ofer jail are exposed to systematic suppression and maltreatment by Israeli jailers and recently they considered staging a mass hunger strike after their talks with the prison administration failed to improve their incarceration conditions.
