Israeli forces violently break into Nafha prison

Wednesday 18-January-2017

The Palestinian Prisoners Society (PPS) revealed that Israeli Special Forces stormed Wednesday section 4 in Nafha prison and carried out violent searches.

Section 3 and 4 four were closed following the violent raid the PPS added.

Meanwhile the rights group raised alarm bells over the health situation of the sick prisoner Anas Jaradat especially that he is still held in solitary confinement over the past nine months.

The group pointed out that Jaradat did not receive any medical treatment since being held in solitary confinement in Ashkelon prison.

Jaradat 36 declared late Tuesday an open-ended hunger strike in protest against Israeli Prison Service’s deliberate medical negligence policy.

Jaradat was abducted by Israeli soldiers on May 11 2003 and sentenced to 35 life-terms and additional 35 years for his affiliation to Jihad Movement and planning attacks against Israeli targets.
