Pictures| Several vigils held across Gaza Strip in support of Palestinian prisoners

Besieged Gaza Strip (QNN)- Several vigils were held today across the Gaza Strip after the Friday prayer, in support of Palestinian prisoners who have been suppressed by Israeli authorities in its jails.

Gazans held vigils in several areas of the Strip, including Jabalia camp, Beit Lahia, and in front of the International Committee of the Red Cross office in Gaza city.

The vigils were held as Palestinian factions and activists on Thursday called for a “day of rage” on Friday to support the Palestinian prisoners against Israeli crackdown and suppression of them in the jails.

Gazans were holding pictures of the Gilbou’s six breakers, who managed to free themselves on September 6 2021, from Gilbou prison, a high-security Israeli prison, through a secret tunnel they had reportedly dug beneath the prison.

Israeli special units and prison administration cracked down on several prisons for four days in a row, including Ketziot’s Section 6 in the Negev and Ramon Prison, in an attempt to disperse some 400 Palestinian prisoners from the Islamic Jihad in a number of other jails.

In response, all Palestinian prisoners held in Israeli jails announced general alarm and insurgency against Israeli laws, in response to the Israeli repression and punitive measures.

The Palestinian prisoners in the Negev and Ramon prisons set fire in the sections of the prisons, as a part of their protest against the Israeli laws.

The occupation authorities has also canceled the family visits for the Palestinian prisoners in its jails until the end of September, according to the Palestine Prisoner’s Society (PPS).

Such tensions came after the heroic act of the six Palestinian prisoners after they released themselves from Israeli jails.
