There are no official figures on the number of Palestinian athletes held in Israeli prisons, but estimates suggest the number is in the hundreds. Mohammed al-Najjar, a coach with Khan Younis Union, put the figure at around 298 detainees. The report covered cases of athletes who were arrested or released, including Karam Shubair, a player for Shati Services. Orthopedic surgeon and sports leader Adnan al-Bursh died while in detention, and Shubair said prison authorities prevent detained athletes from exercising. Those arrested included women’s national team players Rand al-Halawani and Natalie Abu Diya in June 2026; al-Halawani was released on June 7. The report also noted that the fate of some athletes remains unknown, with some detained and others missing.
