🇵🇸 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.

Inside Israel's mass imprisonment of Palestinians – The New Arab
The situation of Palestinians held in Israeli prisons is very dangerous nowadays. This is the worst time prisoners have seen since Israel occupied the Palestinian territories in 1967,” Muhammad Abdul Samad, a spokesperson of the Palestinian Commission for Detainees and Ex-Prisoners’ Affairs, told The New Arab, highlighting how the war on Gaza has dramatically impacted the lives of Palestinian detainees.
"One million Palestinians have passed through Israeli prisons since the occupation of East Jerusalem, the West Bank, and Gaza Strip in 1967
There's hardly a Palestinian house without a family member in jail or a former prisoner. It affects every Palestinian"

🇵🇸 A released Palestinian female prisoner has claimed that female prisoners faced threats of sexual assault and that some were subjected to beatings which at times occurred when they were naked in prison bathrooms.
Ruqayah Amr, one of the Palestinian prisoners released as part of the truce agreement between Hamas and Israel made the claims during an interview with Al Jazeera Arabic TV.
She claimed Israeli guards would threaten prisoners, stating, “They would show us fabricated videos, but the girls would refuse to look at them. [The Israeli guards would say] look what we are going to do to you,” Amr added. “It’s something I can’t even talk about.”
Amr's claims add to previous ones reported by Middle East Eye that allege Israeli guards have threatened sexual assault against female inmates and assaulted them inside their cells.

🇵🇸 Freed Palestinian prisoner: 'I was explicitly threatened with rape'
Lama Khater, a #writer released in the sixth batch of Palestinian prisoners as part of the truce agreement, revealed that Israeli forces threatened to rape her and burn her #children. Describing the harrowing conditions, she stated: "Today, male and female prisoners are enduring what can be considered forced #starvation, in complete #isolation."
Khater describes how an Israeli solider told her that his rage would only be satisfied if he killed 50,000 children in Gaza.
Khater confirmed that at least 10 Palestinian females from the Gaza Strip were transferred to jail two days before the truce. She added that these women were arrested by Israeli forces while fleeing from northern to southern #Gaza. According to Khater, Israel seems to target mothers, forcing them to separate from their children.

🇵🇸 Apartheid Israeli justice system in West Bank
Israel operates two systems of law in the occupied territories. Palestinians under the military. Israelis under civil law"
A report by CNN's Nima Elbagir sheds light on the controversial Israeli justice system and how Palestinians in the West Bank are subject to the jurisdiction of Israel's military courts, while Israeli settlers arrested in the West Bank are tried in civilian courts within Israel
CNN broke down the numbers in a list of 300 Palestinian prisoners identified by Israel as eligible for release. 80% are listed as just detained, which means they have not been formally sentenced
The report talks about Fatima Shahin, who spent seven months in an Israeli prison. She was initially accused of attempting to murder an Israeli in the West Bank. However, she was never formally charged with any crime

🇵🇸 Special Rapporteur Says Israel’s Unlawful Carceral Practices in the Occupied Palestinian Territory Are Tantamount to International Crimes and Have Turned it into an Open-Air Prison | OHCHR - July 2023
Currently, there were 5,000 Palestinians in Israeli prisons, including 160 children, and approximately 1,100 of them were detained without charge or trial. Her report did not condone any acts of violence committed by Palestinians, while living under an unlawful occupation or in their pursuit to end it.
However, it must be acknowledged that most Palestinians had been convicted through a series of violations of international law, such as discrimination, persecution, and breaches of due process and for ordinary acts of life and in the exercise of legitimate civil and political rights.
A widespread and systematic arbitrary deprivation of liberty of Palestinians was a structural component of their subjugation.
