The Ministry of Prisoners and Freed Prisoners in Gaza confirmed on Friday that the Zionist government has turned prisons and detention centers into graveyards for killing and torture using the most heinous and most humiliating means in a manner that violates all the rules of international and humanitarian law.

The Ministry said in a statement that what is revealed daily in terms of photos and reports and what is collected from testimonies from released prisoners about the conditions of Palestinian prisoners inside the occupation prisons and detention centers is a small part of the ugly and bleak picture of what they are exposed to continuously and continuously in terms of killing, torture, abuse and brutal intimidation that exceeds imagination and perception, renewing its demands to international institutions, human rights organizations and the International Committee of the Red Cross to have an effective role in putting an end to these ugly practices practiced on prisoners and working to implement the rules
of international and humanitarian law in dealing with prisoners and allowing them to be visited and their conditions checked.

It denounced the leaked video clips from Megiddo Prison that show the Zionist entity forces abusing Palestinian prisoners and terrorizing them with police dogs, while dozens of prisoners are shown lying on the ground with their hands tied behind their backs, lying on their stomachs, while Zionist security forces terrorize them with dogs.

The number of prisoners and detainees in the prisons of the Zionist entity is about 9,900 prisoners, in addition to prisoners from Gaza who were recognized by the occupation after their arrest during the war and classified as “illegal combatants”, numbering 1,584, in addition to an unknown number in the camps affiliated with the army.
