The lawyer of the Prisoners and Ex-Detainees Affairs Authority was able to visit Damoun Prison and met with a number of female prisoners detained there, who conveyed the extent of the daily suffering imposed on them, their exposure to insults and violations of privacy, and the practice of abuse, torture and revenge against them.

The Commission revealed that Palestinian female prisoners live in a state of isolation, and are singled out by male and female jailers, where they are constantly subjected to insults and cursing, and are cut off from the outside world due to the withdrawal of television and radio equipment and the prevention of entry of newspapers, and there is constant work to influence their psyche and destroy their internal humanitarian and patriotic content.

The Commission stated that the punishments imposed on the prisoners after the seventh of October affected the female prisoners in all their details, as all electrical appliances were confiscated, food quantities were reduced to less than the minimum and its quality was poor, the cantina was closed and family visits were prohibited, a shortage of clothes, blankets, and feminine supplies, and intentional contamination. Drinking water, setting fast hours and showering.

The Commission said: “The prison administration also practiced beating and torture against them, and deliberately tied their hands and feet and brutally blindfolded them during their interrogation, or when they left for the clinic, or to visit a lawyer, or when they were transferred. They subjected them to strip searches, threatened them with rape, pulled their hair, and dragged them to the ground, and used mobile phones to photograph them while they were in difficult and painful situations.” .

The Commission points out that the general situation of all female prisoners is difficult and disturbing, and we renew our cry to the Arab and international feminist human rights and social institutions, to rise up for the sake of the female prisoner and the Palestinian woman, and not to leave her a prey to organized Israeli crime, which is escalating day after day, in light of the shameful international silence, knowing that the total number For female prisoners in Damoun, Sharon and Al-Isolation Prison (81 female prisoners).
