Palestinian Prisoners' Affairs: Deliberate medical neglect of those afflicted with "skypox" in Megiddo prison
Ramallah – Saba: The Palestinian Prisoners' Affairs Commission said on Tuesday that "skypox" is widespread in Megiddo Prison, due to the prison administration's delay in providing the necessary medication to infected prisoners. The Commission quoted its lawyer, speaking in a statement during a visit to a number of prisoners in Megiddo Prison, as saying that prisoner Ahmed Mahmoud Abdel Razzaq (32 years old) from Tulkarm is being held in Section 3, Room 1, at this prison. He was arrested on April 25, 2024, and remains detained. He has a court date scheduled for July 13. The Commission stated that the prisoner suffers from "skypox" and that boils have begun to appear on his body. He has not yet been given any antibiotics or medication. It is worth noting that he lost approximately 15 kilograms of weight after his arrest and was beaten during his arrest. Regarding the general situation in the prison, the Commission reported testimony from prisoners visited by the Commission's lawyers, stating that hot water was not provided daily. Regarding shampoo, three bottles were distributed per week, in addition to one roll of tissues per prisoner per week. The prisoners agreed that, depending on the mood of the jailer on duty, prisoners were assaulted, beaten, and humiliated, and sometimes subjected to repression for the most trivial reasons. The Prisoners' Information Office had previously reported that five Palestinian prisoners had been martyred in Israeli enemy prisons, four of them from the Gaza Strip, during the month of May. This brings the number of martyrs from the prisoner movement since October 7, 2023, to 70. Whatsapp Telegram Email Print more of (International)

Palestinian child dies due to famine caused by Israeli enemy blockade on Gaza
Gaza – Saba: A Palestinian child died Monday evening in the city of Khan Yunis, south of the Gaza Strip, due to famine and dehydration caused by the stifling Israeli blockade on the people of the Strip. The Palestinian News Agency, Wafa, quoted medical sources as confirming that the child died in Khan Yunis Children's and Maternity Hospital due to malnutrition resulting from the famine in the besieged Strip. They explained that thousands of children are suffering from symptoms of malnutrition due to the Israeli enemy blockade of the Gaza Strip, its closure of all crossings, and its prevention of the entry of basic materials and humanitarian aid, including food, water, medicine, and even fuel, for nearly 100 days. In a previous statement, Director of Medical Relief in Southern Gaza Bassam Zaqout said that the Gaza Strip has become a place of death, with the famine rate reaching 100%. Since the first hours of the devastating aggression perpetrated by the Israeli enemy army against the Gaza Strip, the weapon of starvation, particularly in northern Gaza, has been part of the crime of genocide, murder, siege, and destruction.
