Palestinian prisoner from Nablus killed in Israeli jail
Occupied Quds - Saba: The Commission of Prisoners' Affairs and the Palestinian Prisoners' Club announced today, Thursday, the death of prisoner Musab Hassan Adili (20 years old) from the town of Usrin, south of Nablus, in the northern occupied West Bank. The Commission and the Club quoted the Civil Affairs Authority as saying that prisoner Adili, who had been detained since March 22, 2024, and was serving a one-year and one-month prison sentence, died last night at Soroka Hospital in occupied Palestine. The Commission and the Club stated that prisoner Adili joins the list of martyrs of the prisoners' movement, who have died as a result of the organized crimes perpetrated by the Israeli occupation prison system in an unprecedented manner since the beginning of the ongoing genocide in the Gaza Strip. The Commission and the Club stated that with Adili's martyrdom, the number of martyrs among prisoners and detainees since the genocide has risen to 64. Their identities are the only ones known, given the ongoing crime of enforced disappearance. At least 40 of them are from Gaza. This constitutes the bloodiest phase in the history of the prisoners' movement and the Palestinian people. The number of martyrs from the prisoner movement whose identities are known since 1967 has reached 301, while the number of martyr prisoners whose bodies are being held has reached 73, including 62 since the genocide. The Commission and the Club added that Adili's martyrdom on Palestinian Prisoners' Day "constitutes a new crime in the record of the brutal Zionist regime, which has practiced all forms of crimes aimed at killing prisoners. These crimes constitute another aspect of the ongoing genocide." They warned that the rising number of martyrs among prisoners and detainees will take a more dangerous turn as more time passes for thousands of prisoners and detainees to be held in occupation prisons, and as they continue to be exposed to systematic crimes, most notably torture, starvation, assaults of all kinds, medical crimes, sexual assaults, and the deliberate imposition of conditions that lead to serious and contagious diseases, most notably scabies, in addition to unprecedented policies of deprivation and deprivation. The Commission and the Club held the occupation fully responsible for the death of prisoner Adili and renewed their call for the international human rights community to move forward with effective decisions to hold the occupation leaders accountable for the war crimes they continue to commit against the Palestinian people. They also called for the imposition of sanctions on the occupation that would place it in a state of clear international isolation, restore the human rights system to its fundamental role for which it was created, put an end to the horrific state of impotence it has suffered during the war of extermination, and end the exceptional immunity the world has granted the occupying state, which considers it above accountability, accountability, and punishment.

Palestinian Rights Groups say Musab Haniyah died in Israeli jail
Gaza - Saba: The Commission of Prisoners' Affairs and the Palestinian Prisoners' Club on Tuesday said they received a response from the Israeli occupation army, regarding the martyrdom of the Palestinian detainee Musab Hani Haniyah (35 years old) from Gaza, in the occupation prisons on January 5, 2025. According to the Palestinian Media Center, the Commission and the Club said in a statement that Martyr Haniyah was arrested from Hamad City on March 3, 2024, and he did not suffer from any health problems before his arrest according to his family, noting that he is married and has an only child who is nine years old. The agency added that the occupier "does not stop at killing the detainees, but even in revealing their fate, it deliberately manipulates the responses, and this has happened many times, so we confirm that all the responses related to the martyrs are responses from the occupation army and there is no other evidence of their martyrdom, as the occupation continues to detain their bodies, and in most of the responses, the occupation indicates that an investigation is underway in an attempt to evade any international accountability." The statement explained that with the martyrdom of Haniyah, the number of martyrs among the prisoners and detainees in the occupation prisons since the beginning of the war of extermination has risen to (59) martyrs, and they are the only ones whose identities are known, including at least (38) from Gaza, and this number is the highest historically, so that this stage is the bloodiest stage in the history of the prisoner movement since 1967, so that the number of martyrs of the prisoner movement whose identities are known since 1967 has risen to (296), noting that there are dozens of martyrs from the detainees of Gaza who are subject to enforced disappearance. The statement said: The case of the martyrdom of Detainee Haniyah constitutes a new crime in the record of the Israeli brutality system, which has reached its peak since the beginning of the war of extermination. It stressed that what is happening to the prisoners and detainees is nothing but another aspect of the war of extermination, and its goal is to carry out more executions and assassinations against prisoners and detainees. The Commission and the Club stressed that the rate of increasing numbers of martyrs among prisoners and detainees will take a more dangerous turn as more time passes since thousands of prisoners and detainees are detained in the occupation prisons, and they continue to be exposed to systematic crimes, most notably torture, starvation, assaults in all their forms, medical crimes, sexual assaults, and the deliberate imposition of conditions that lead to them contracting serious and contagious diseases, in addition to the policies of theft and deprivation - unprecedented in their level. They held the occupation fully responsible for the martyrdom of the detainee Haniyah, and renewed their demand for the international human rights system to move forward in taking effective decisions to hold the leaders of the occupation accountable for the war crimes that they continue to commit against our people, and to impose sanctions on the occupation that would put it in a state of clear international isolation, and restore the human rights system to its basic role for which it was created, and put an end to the terrifying state of helplessness that it suffered during the war of extermination, and end the state of exceptional immunity granted by the old colonial states to the Zionist occupation state, as it is above accountability, accountability and punishment.

Israel to deport or return nearly all released Palestinian prisoners to Gaza
The Palestinian Authority's Commission of Prisoners' Affairs has released the names of 369 Palestinians set to be freed on Saturday as part of the latest captive-prisoner exchange under the Israel-Hamas ceasefire deal. Only eight of those released will be welcomed home in the occupied West Bank, while four will return to their homes in occupied East Jerusalem. Meanwhile, Israel has decided to exile 24 prisoners serving life sentences to Egypt, denying them the right to return to their homeland. The remaining 333 were originally detained in Gaza following Hamas's attack on 7 October 2023 and will be sent back to the enclave.
