Isolated detainee Jaradat suffers from liver disease
Picture
Mohjat al-Quds Foundation said on Sunday that the isolated Palestinian detainee Anas Jaradat, 36, from Silat al-Harithiya village in Jenin city, is suffering from a disease in the liver as a result of the deliberate medical negligence policy practiced by the Israeli prison service against him.

In a letter by Jaradat to Mohjat al-Quds, the detainee said that he had a blood test when he was in Hadarim prison in 2009 which showed that he had a liver disease called Jaundice. However, he added, the prison administration didn't tell him about the result despite the fact that he was suffering from some symptoms including yellowing of the eyes.

Jaradat said that when he was isolated at the Megiddo prison in May 2016, he knew about his disease after the prison infirmary doctor asked him about the kind of medication he takes for his liver.

He mentioned in the letter that the doctor confirmed that he has a liver disease and told him to get a blood test, and two months later he had the test but was not informed about the result. Few days ago, Jaradat asked the administration of Ashkelon prison, where he is currently isolated, to tell him the result of the test and inform him about his health condition. He was told that he has a disease in the liver.

For its part, Mohjat al-Quds Foundation held the Israeli occupation authorities and the Israeli prisons service responsible for the life of Anas Jaradat, pointing out that they pursue a blatant policy of deliberate medical negligence against the Palestinian detainees and do not provide them the necessary treatment and health care guaranteed by the international laws and conventions especially Geneva conventions.

The Foundation called on the International Committee of the Red Cross and the UN human rights organizations to "do their humanitarian duty stipulated by the international laws and conventions towards the Palestinian prisoners in the Israeli jails and send specialized doctors to conduct periodic checkups on the prisoners and provide them the necessary treatment and health care".

Jaradat is a single young man who was arrested by the Israeli occupation forces on 11th May 2003 and sentenced to life imprisonment 35 times in addition to 35 years on charges of being a member of the Islamic Jihad movement and its armed wing, al-Quds Brigades, and planning martyrdom operations, two of which led to killing 31 Israelis. Jaradat has the longest sentence among the prisoners of the Islamic Jihad.

The Israeli Ofer military court on Sunday evening sentenced a 13-year-old Palestinian child to 31 days in jail and a fine of up to 3,000 shekels.

Lawyer Mondher Abu Ahmad, from the Palestinian Prisoners Society (PPS), said the Ofer court sentenced the Palestinian child Jabr Rebhi Badawi, a native of al-Khalil’s northern camp of al-Arroub, to 31 days in jail and a bail of 3,000 shekels on charges of hurling stones at the occupation army.

Badawi was kidnapped by the Israeli occupation soldiers on January 11, 2017 on his way back home from school. 14-year-old Ayham Mohamed Adawi was also kidnapped in the process.

Picture
Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF) arrested 16 Palestinians in the West Bank and Occupied Jerusalem. 10 Palestinians of the arrested were labeled as wanted over the charge of taking part in resistance activities, according to a report issued by the IOF.

According to the report, the arrests included activists of Islamic Jihad and Hamas Movements from Jenin, Nablus, Ramallah, Bethlehem and al-Khalil provinces.

The IOF announced seizing thousands of shekels during search campaigns in Beita town in Nablus claiming that it goes to the Palestinian resistance.

Israeli police rounded up six Palestinians from Mount Scopus, al-Tour, al-Isawiya areas in Occupied Jerusalem including four minors.

The raids carried out by the IOF troops included breaking into Palestinians’ homes, field investigations, and forcing Palestinians to evacuate their homes under the rain at late night hours for search purposes.

Israeli police detain 12 Palestinians suspected of stone-throwing in Negev
Picture
Israeli police detained 12 Palestinians citizens of Israel in the Negev at dawn on Sunday over suspicions of being involved in a rock-throwing incident.

Israeli police spokeswoman Luba al-Samri said in a statement that the 12 individuals, all in their twenties and thirties, were suspected of throwing rocks at police vehicles that were chasing a car without license plates in the town of Rahat on Thursday.

An Israeli police officer was reportedly injured in the incident, and three police vehicles were damaged, al-Samri added.

Israel detains hundreds of Palestinians for alleged stone throwing every year. 

Palestinian stone throwers face harsh penalties by Israeli authorities, with Israel passing a laws in 2015 allowing for up to 20 years in prison if charged with throwing stones at vehicles and a minimum of three years for the act of throwing a stone at an Israeli -- legislation rights groups say was designed specifically to target Palestinians, as Israelis and settlers are rarely prosecuted under the same standards of the law.

Israeli forces detain 10 Palestinians in multiple predawn raids
Picture
Israeli forces detained at least 10 Palestinians and confiscated money in multiple predawn military raids across the occupied West Bank, according to the Israeli army.

An Israeli army spokesperson told Ma’an that a “Hamas operative” was detained in the town of Beita south of Nablus in the northern occupied West Bank.

Israeli media reported that "tens of thousands shekels" were seized from the detainee's house, allegedly used in "terrorist activities against Israel."

In the northernmost district of Jenin, the Israeli army said they detained one person in Jenin city and another in the village of Birqin west of the city.

Meanwhile, three Palestinians were detained in al-Jalazun refugee camp in the central occupied West Bank district of Ramallah.

In the southern occupied West Bank, Israeli forces also raided the Hebron district and detained one Palestinian from the village of Sair and another from the village of al-Kom, according to the Israeli army spokesperson, who added two Palestinians were also detained in the village of Husan in the Bethlehem district.

The Palestinian Prisoner's Society (PPS), which documents overnight raids by Israeli forces, said in a statement earlier this month that it had recorded the detention of 100 Palestinians, including 18 minors, in the first five days of 2017.

Israeli forces carry out detention raids across the occupied Palestinian territory on a near-nightly basis, with the UN recording some 178 raids in the West Bank between Dec. 13 and 26, 2016.

According to prisoners’ rights group Addameer, 7,000 Palestinians were held in Israeli prisons as of October 2016.

Meanwhile, a report by the prisoners’ and ex-prisoners’ committee sounded the alarm over the agony endured by the Palestinian detainees in the Ofer lock-up due to the acute dearth in winter blankets, visit bans, and lack of much-needed items.

The committee further warned of the abject detention conditions, along with the poor-quality food and medical negligence, endured by prisoners in Etzion jail.

Nearly 7,000 Palestinians are locked up in Israeli jails, among whom 13 female minors and 350 male minors.

Picture
Israeli soldiers invaded, on Sunday at dawn, several areas of the occupied West Bank, broke into and searched many homes and abducted four Palestinians. The army also installed roadblocks, and summoned a father and his son for interrogation.

Several army vehicles invaded Jenin city, in the northern part of the occupied West Bank, before the soldiers stormed and searched homes, and abducted a former political prisoner and one of his relatives.

The Jenin office of the Palestinian Prisoners’ Society (PPS) said the soldiers abducted Noureddin Mohmmad Sa’adi, from his home in Sa’ada neighborhood in the city, after the soldiers interrogated him and his family.

The soldiers also abducted Hamza Sa’adi, after breaking into his home and searching it, the PPS added.

In Nablus, in the northern part of the West Bank, the soldiers invaded Beita town, south of the city, searched several homes and abducted a former political prisoner, identified as Ammar Zoheir As’ad, 32.

His family said the soldiers interrogated them while ransacking their property, and illegally confiscated sums of cash.

IOF arrests Palestinian at Ennab barrier in Tulkarem
Picture
Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF) arrested on Saturday a Palestinian man while passing through Ennab military checkpoint to the east of Tulkarem in the northern West Bank.

Local sources told the PIC reporter that Israeli troops stopped Palestinian cars passing by at the barrier leading to traffic jams at different hours.

The IOF soldiers arrested a Palestinian young man who was identified as Husam al-Zayyat from Tulkarem. He was taken to an unknown destination, the sources added.

Palestinian professor imprisoned in Israel without charge or trial set to undergo surgery
Picture
Palestinian prisoner, Issam al-Ashqar, who is serving six months of administrative detention -- internment without charge or trial, is set to undergo a surgery owing to his failing health, Mutaz Shqerat, a lawyer for the Palestinian Committee of Prisoners’ Affairs, said in a statement on Thursday

Al-Ashqar, a physics professor at An-Najah Univeristy in the occupied West Bank city of Nablus, was detained by Israeli forces on Nov. 24 and sentenced to six months of administrative detention.

He has since been suffering from high blood pressure, in addition to severe headaches and difficulties in moving, which reportedly can cause heart attacks, according to Shqerat.

He added that al-Ashqar had suffered a heart attack prior to be detained in November.

Shqerat said that doctors at Israel’s Ramla prison hospital decided to move forward with the surgery, but al-Ashqar told Shqerat that he had not yet agreed to the surgery, as he wants to undergo the procedure at the An-Najah National University hospital.

It was unclear in Shqerat’s statement what exact procedure the imprisoned professor would be undergoing.

Shqerat demanded that human rights and official Palestinian institutions intervene to release the professor from Israeli prison.

He also added that there were 23 other sick Palestinian prisoners being held at Israel’s Ramla hospital.

Since Palestinian prisoners oftentimes hold deep mistrust for Israeli prison officials and institutions as a result of widely documented abuses committed against Palestinians by Israeli forces both in and outside of Israeli prisons, many demand to be treated by Palestinian doctors. However, Israeli authorities typically deny such requests until they are released from detention and transferred back to the occupied Palestinian territory.

Israel’s policy of administrative detention, which is almost exclusively used against Palestinians, has been widely condemned by the international community as rights groups have charged Israel with using the policy to arbitrarily detain Palestinians for undisclosed reasons as a way of disrupting political and social life for Palestinian communities.

According to prisoners’ rights group Addameer, 7,000 Palestinians were currently being held in Israeli prison as of October, 720 of whom were being held without charge or trial in administrative detention.

In August last year, a number of Palestinian rights organizations established a committee to follow the cases of Palestinians in poor health being held in Israeli prisons.

Rights groups have accused the Israel Prison Service (IPS) of practicing a policy of medical neglect on Palestinian prisoners, leading to at least 17 Palestinian prisoners dying in Israeli custody as a direct result of medical negligence from the beginning of the Second Intifada in 2000 until 2008, according to Addameer.

In addition to deliberate medical negligence, Addameer has cited the environment in Israeli prisons, which is reportedly far below international standards, the tendency for the Israeli prison administration to ignore their responsibility for the well being of Palestinian prisoners, and the overcrowding in Israeli prisons as all factors that adversely impact the health of Palestinians in Israeli custody.

IOF carries out fresh arrest campaigns
Picture
The Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF) carried out at dawn Saturday a large-scale raid and arrest campaign throughout West Bank.

Two brothers were detained east of Salfit, while another young man was arrested in Tulkarem and taken handcuffed to unknown detention center.

In Ramallah, a youngster was rounded up in Beit Rima town north of city and taken for investigation.

In al-Khalil, a Palestinian-owned vehicle was confiscated in Beit Ummar town north of the city which led to the outbreak of violent clashes.

The local activist Mohamed Awad affirmed that the clashes broke out when Israeli forces stormed in large numbers the resident Ibrahim Khalil’s house before confiscating his car.

Heavy teargas bombs and rubber bullets were fired during the clashes.
