Intimidation, beatings, and humiliation happens in secret, and although these abuses have been leaked, they are much more severe than we know, Lina al-Tawil, director of that institution, denounced in an interview with Safa news agency.

She affirmed that the scenes recently broadcast by the Israeli media confirm the abuses, aggression, and degradation of the dignity and humanity of those Palestinian prisoners who will soon be released as part of the ceasefire in Gaza.

The activist referred to the transfer of several Palestinian captives who are serving long sentences in Israel before their release as part of an exchange with Hamas.

We call for urgent international protection for thousands of prisoners who are subject to organized State terrorism, sponsored by the highest levels of Israeli political and security forces, Al-Tawil underscored.

The Center recently accused the Israeli Prison Service (IPS) of intensifying mistreatment against detainees and warned that the new policy had become systematic.

In this regard, it warned of the use of sound bombs, tear gas, batons, and police dogs against inmates.
