The international community and the rights of prisoners in occupation prisons

Written by: Sri Al Qudwa
The international community and international, regional and human rights institutions play a great importance in activating the issue of prisoners in the prisons of the Israeli occupation. We must call for an international conference on Palestinian prisoners and immediate and urgent intervention to stop the violations committed by the occupation authorities against them and obligate them to respect the implementation of international law and provide them with the necessary protection, especially the Geneva Convention The fourth is to put an end to the suffering of administrative detainees who are taking important steps to boycott the occupation courts as a strategic and legal step aimed at delegitimizing the Israeli judiciary and its unjust military courts as a tool of repression in the hands of the extremist occupation government, which continues to issue instructions and escalate repression by the occupation soldiers, in addition to the orgy of hateful settlers and their attacks on The religious places in Jerusalem, the capital of the State of Palestine, in addition to the international and human rights consensus that Israel, as the occupying power, is practicing the crime of apartheid in the occupied Palestinian territories, and that it is time to prosecute and hold it accountable, judicially and internationally.
Caring for the detainees and their families, the families of the martyrs and the wounded, and providing them with a dignified life is a national duty and a legal and constant obligation among the Palestinian national constants and struggle. In order to gain their freedom, defend their just cause, and build their independent state with Jerusalem as its capital.
The Palestinian people and all the factions absolutely reject the campaigns of incitement and the systematic punitive measures practiced by the occupation government against the detainees and the attempts to brand their struggle with terrorism and fight their families as a means of pressure on them. Concerning the violations committed by the occupation against the detainees, the latest of which is the piracy of the money paid by the Palestinian government to them and their families, and the pressure on the Israeli Knesset to cancel its racist legislation towards them.
In accordance with international law, humanitarian law, and the Geneva Conventions, it is the duty of the sponsoring states of the Geneva Conventions to pressure the occupation for the immediate release of detainees, primarily women, children, sick cases, and the elderly, such as the 83-year-old prisoner commander Fuad al-Shobaki, in implementation of Article (109) of the Third Geneva Convention, and the implementation of Articles (90, 91) of the Fourth Geneva Convention, to ensure that detainees receive the necessary treatment and adequate medical care as protected persons, and that they be provided for in accordance with Articles (81 and 98) of the same Convention, given that Israel is the detaining power for them.
