🇵🇸 ‘No Pain like Mine’: The Story of Palestinian Prisoner Israa’ Ja’abis
To understand the context of the Palestinian prisoners’ stories, the Palestine Chronicle provides excerpts from Ramzy Baroud’s volume These Chains Will Be Broken: Palestinian Stories of Struggle and Defiance in Israeli Prisons.
Israa’ Ja’abis was born on July 22, 1984, in Al-Quds (Jerusalem), the fourth of nine sisters and brothers. She was arrested following an electrical system failure in her car which caught fire while she was still trapped inside. It resulted in first, second and third-degree burns on her face and all over her body, including the loss of eight fingers.

Liberated prisoner #IsraaJaabis to Al Jazeera:
—
Praise be to God, we are ashamed to rejoice when all of Palestine is wounded.
There are many injured people inside the occupation's prisons.
Efforts must be made to free all prisoners from the occupation's prisons.
Young Palestinian girls were exposed to many things in the occupation prisons.
We were subjected to abuse and beatings in the occupation's prisons.
Behind these words, there is a lot of oppression. We place our trust in God and then in the resistance to completely liberate the prisons.

🇵🇸 Israa Jaabis, a Palestinian woman who suffered severe burns and was charged with attempted murder after her car exploded near an Israeli checkpoint in 2015, has been welcomed home by her family.
Speaking to media after her release late on Saturday night, Jaabis said: “My wounds are visible and my struggles, I don’t need to talk about.”
She described the emotions of yearning to be with family as the price prisoners pay.
She also expressed concerns about other Palestinians she had been imprisoned with who were not released, including young girls who she said cried when she was released “because they’ve been subjected to a lot of things”.
“I’m talking about the small girls. They’ve been through things that nobody should witness,” #IsraaJaabis told journalists.
