Hassan Salama after 30 years imprisonment
Hassan Salama, a Palestinian prisoner who has been detained since 1996, has returned to the spotlight after Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir released a video showing him in his cell, shackled, threatening to kill and execute him. Ben-Gvir considers this part of his efforts to impose the death penalty on Palestinian prisoners if he assumes the defense portfolio. Salama, who has spent about 30 years in occupation prisons, is a leader of the Izz al-Din al-Qassam Brigades and close to Commander Mohammed Deif. He has faced torture, undergone severe interrogations, and was sentenced to 48 life sentences. Literarily, he has written about his experiences in solitary confinement and the violations he endured. He also participated in prisoner exchange negotiations. Currently, he remains under harsh sentences, and Ben-Gvir’s threats are part of his attempts to impose the death penalty on prisoners. These remarks have drawn criticism from human rights organizations and Arab countries amid escalating tensions between Israel and Palestine.
