The occupation soldiers also fired spates of rubber-coated bullets and teargas canisters in clashes with Palestinian anti-occupation youth in Beit Ummar town, north of al-Khalil province, in the southern West Bank.

Activist Mohamed Awad said confrontations broke out in al-Dhahr neighborhood, near Israel’s illegal settlement of KarmiTsur.

Picture
The 19-year-old son of the Palestinian prisoner Rajab al-Tahan, Majd, died on Tuesday evening after a battle with cancer.

Rajab al-Tahan announced on 15th October that he will start a hunger strike in Israeli jails after the efforts made by many human rights institutions to convince the Israeli occupation authorities to allow him to visit his son had failed.

On 26th October, the Israeli court decided to delay its response to a petition filed by the Prisoners and Ex-Prisoners Affairs Commission to allow Tahan to see his sick son at the hospital.

Tahan was able to visit his dying son late October at Hadassah hospital in Jerusalem after the Beersheba District Court accepted the request submitted by his family and the Prisoners Commission.

Rajab al-Tahan, 49, is a resident of Silwan town in Occupied Jerusalem. He was arrested and sentenced to life imprisonment in 1998. After serving 13 years in Israeli jails, he was released in the 2011 Wafa al-Ahrar deal. Tahan was re-arrested in 2014 and he is currently serving the remaining term of his previous life sentence in Israeli jails.

Center calls for saving life of prisoner Osama Hammad
Picture
The Palestinian Prisoners Center for Studies on Tuesday called on human rights organizations to intervene to save the life of the 22-year-old Palestinian prisoner, Osama Hammad, who is facing severe medical problems in Israeli jails.

The Center said, quoting Osama's father, Hasan, that Osama has been subjected to medical negligence since the first year of his detention, adding that his health condition started to deteriorate during his interrogation at al-Maskoubiya detention center.

Osama's father expressed his deep concern over his son's health following a visit he paid to him at the Israeli Negev prison. Hammad said that his son's face looked pale and he was unable to speak or move naturally.

The Center pointed out that Osama was supposed to undergo a hernia surgery before his arrest and that he has repeatedly asked the Israeli Prison Service to allow him to have the surgery yet procrastination is the case.

Osama, who is a resident of Qalandiya refugee camp in Jerusalem, was arrested on 29th December 2015. Osama's family then informed the intelligence officer about his health condition but that did not change anything.

Osama was held at al-Maskoubiya detention center for more than a month, and a year later, Ofer court imposed a three-year prison sentence on him.

Overnight, the occupation authorities detained 24-year-old Sharaf Abu Bakr, from Jenin’s southern town of Yabad.

The United Nations expressed on Monday concerns over the situation of 500 Palestinian children incarcerated in Israeli jails.

U.N. deputy spokesman Farhan Haq said during a press conference held at the UN headquarters in New York that the number of Palestinian minors held in Israeli lock-ups has hit 500.

The UN official called on Israel to either work out the legal situation of minor detainees and of all Palestinians held with neither charge nor trial in occupation prisons, or to release them immediately.

Palestinian children in Israeli penitentiaries have been made to endure dire detention conditions and harsh torture tactics, most notorious among which being strip-searches, heavy beating, verbal assaults, and exhaustive interrogation to force confession.
