The report states that according to human rights organizations, these Palestinian prisoners endure purposeful torture conditions. Among them are civilians such as a nurse and an 18-year-old grocery seller who face no formal charges. Like other Israeli detention centers, they suffer beatings.
The article also highlights that this infamous prison was built in the 1980s to detain members of Israeli criminal gangs. Although it was closed, it reopened following orders from Itamar Ben-Gvir, Israel’s Minister of Internal Security, after Operation Al-Aqsa Storm. Ben-Gvir has repeatedly boasted about mistreating Palestinian prisoners. These detainees face beatings, attacks by dogs, and are denied adequate medical care and food.
