A wounded detainee from Saida, northeast of Tulkarm, died in prison

Today, Sunday, the wounded detainee Zaher Tahseen Yousef Raddad (19 years old), from the town of Saida, north of Tulkarm, died while he was in a hospital inside the 1948 territories.


On July 23, Raddad was seriously injured after the occupation forces surrounded a house he was in in the Ezbet al-Jarad suburb east of Tulkarm city, and bombed it with an occupation drone. He was arrested along with three other young men, including a young man who was moderately injured, after the house was raided.


The Commission of Prisoners' Affairs and the Prisoners' Club confirmed, in a joint statement, the death of the wounded prisoner Raddad in the Israeli Meir Hospital.


The statement explained that Raddad was arrested after the occupation forces shot him and used him as a human shield by placing him on the front of one of the occupation forces’ military vehicles. This appeared in a video clip during the military operation carried out by the occupation forces in Tulkarm.
