Several thousand prisoners face severe winter conditions
Palestine Center for Prisoners' Studies warned of the deteriorating humanitarian and health conditions of approximately 9,400 prisoners and detainees in the Israeli occupation prisons, coinciding with the start of the winter season. This is due to their continued deprivation of clothing, blankets, and heating supplies since October 2023. As a result, their suffering has increased, especially in Negev, Ramon, and Nafha prisons, where temperatures drop and rainwater leaks into the prisoners’ tents, raising the likelihood of illnesses such as scabies and putting sick prisoners, women, children, and the elderly at risk. The center called on international institutions to intervene immediately to ensure the provision of winter clothing, blankets, and healthcare for all detainees.
