“Israel must immediately cease its crime of enforced disappearance against Palestinian prisoners and detainees from the Gaza Strip; reveal all secret detention camps; reveal the names, whereabouts, and fates of all Palestinians it is holding from the Strip.”
The Geneva-based Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor has described the physical and mental health conditions of the Palestinian detainees released during the seventh round of the exchange agreement between Israel and Hamas as “shocking.”
“Israel’s release of hundreds of Palestinian prisoners and detainees, who arrived in the Gaza Strip recently in exceptionally poor health, illustrates its ongoing use of torture to terrorise and persecute prisoners and detainees and break their will until the very end of their detention,” the rights group said in a report on Friday.
Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor has described the physical and mental health conditions of freed Palestinian detainees as “shocking.”
“The effects of torture were clearly evident, with the emaciated bodies of the released individuals reflecting the severity of systematic crimes and inhumane treatment that exceed all legal and moral bounds,” it added.
The group emphasized that the “repeated release of such visibly unhealthy individuals from Israeli prisons reveals that the heinous torture and wilful medical neglect they endure have escalated to appalling levels.”
It noted that the “atrocities occurring in these prisons are among the worst violations recorded by human rights organisations worldwide.” (more...)
