The Palestinian cancer patient Fawaz Baara 45 has entered his 13th year in Israeli jails.
The Palestine Center for Prisoners Studies pointed out that Baara was arrested in 2004 and sentenced to three life sentences plus 35 years for allegedly being affiliated with Fatah’s armed wing and involved in anti-occupation attacks.
Baara is one of the most difficult health conditions in Israeli jails as cancerous tumors had formed behind his ear.
He was held in Ramla prison hospital for long periods of time; however his health situation has dramatically deteriorated over the past few years.
The rights center expressed deep concern over Baara’s health situation as he started suffering different health problems.
Baara’s family also called on international human rights institutions to save their son’s life before it is too late holding the Israeli occupation authorities responsible for his safety.
