The Israeli occupation authorities have deprived a 15-year-old Palestinian girl of her right to be visited by her parents in an Israeli jail.
The father of the jailed Palestinian minor Natali Shouka said the IOA allowed him to visit his daughter, detained since April 28, 2016, only once in jail and during court trials, under the security pretext.
In December 2016, an Israeli occupation court sentenced the Palestinian child Shoukha, a native of Ramallah’s town of Ramon, to actual imprisonment for one year and a half.

The situation has gone far worse due to a Red Cross decision restricting the number of authorized visits down to once a month only.
