Prisoners are subjected to constant abuse and torture.

Prisoners inside the occupation's detention centers and prisons are exposed to waves of continuous torture, and live in difficult and life-threatening conditions, under Ben Gvir's instructions and punishments that he imposes and brags about. Every now and then, he releases a video of himself in the prisoners' cells, threatening them with more torture, more abuse, and death threats.


Since Ben Gvir took over the prisons, he has been threatening and vowing to commit more atrocities. He is possessed by a spirit of revenge, and filled with racism and hatred. We see him appearing with complete brutality, trading evil, and giving instructions for more torture, more abuse, more killing, oppression and terrorism against male and female prisoners in the occupation’s prisons.


The prisoners who are released come out as skeletons, due to the coercive policy practiced against them, the physical and psychological torture, the prevention of meals and drink, and the isolation policies in narrow rooms and cells that do not receive sunlight or air. In the midst of all this, infectious diseases spread, and the prisoners are not provided with the necessary and required treatments. The occupation prisons have become slaughterhouses for humans, and whoever enters them is lost and whoever leaves them is born.


Prisoners are subjected to systematic torture and live in unprecedented detention conditions. Since October 7, sanctions have been imposed and systematic tools and decisions have been introduced, according to coercive policies and torture in various forms and tools, which poses a grave danger that threatens their lives and threatens them with chronic diseases. All of this is happening in the absence of the role of international institutions and their prevention from visiting detainees. The occupation authorities deliberately do not disclose the places of detention and do not allow the Red Cross and lawyers to visit them, especially detainees from Gaza.


Prisoners emerge from prison as skeletons, and their stories are astonishing as they are, as they see the immoral torture they are subjected to, witnessed by their bodies and the scars that accompany them, and their suffering that continues even after their release.


Prisoners leave prisons with signs of torture on their bodies, their feet can hardly carry them due to hunger, weight loss, and the constant abuse that accompanies them from the moment of their arrest until the moment of their release. Many of those released need years of treatment, so what about those who are still languishing in the occupation prisons, without treatment or medicine and in cells unfit for human life? With each day, the danger to their lives increases. Who will save the prisoners from what they are exposed to? Who will protect their lives amidst the abuse, torture, and criminality they are experiencing?
