Three Palestinian prisoners have cancer in Israeli jails
Palestinian Commission of Prisoners and Ex-Prisoners Affairs announced on Saterday that three Palestinian prisoners are suffering from cancer in Israeli jails.
The three prisoners are Nidal Abu Ahour, Imad Abu Ramouz and Omar Orabi and they all have been diagnosed with cancer.
Abu Ahlur who suffers from kidney cancer is the most serious among the three prisoners.
The Palestinian Commission of Prisoners expressed serious concern about the health condition of the Palestinian prisoners, pointing out that medical negligence in the prisons is the reason behind the deterioration in their health.
Israeli authorities commit flagrant violations against the Palestinian prisoners, including depriving them of the right to healthcare, protection from infectious diseases and non-discrimination.
Israeli occupation detains nearly 5,400 Palestinians, including 41 women, 170 children and 370 administrative detainees who it holds without charge or trial.
Qassam Barghouti says Israeli forces broke his father Marwan’s teeth and ribs, cut his ear, and crushed his fingers “for fun.” His family fears a dangerous plan to kill the jailed Palestinian leader.
Palestinian prisoners in Israeli jails are facing harsh detention conditions, including severe hunger, massive overcrowding, and poor sanitary conditions.
