Prisoners' Association: Isolating a whiff of the Guantanamo prison got worse

Today, Monday, the Commission for Detainees and Ex-Detainees Affairs published details of the tragic situation and the difficult conditions that the prisoners face in Nafha isolation, which exceed the most basic human and moral standards.


The commission’s lawyer, Youssef Mattia, conveyed a clear picture and accurate details that reflect the situation of Nafha’s isolation, and that was stated by the prisoner Hassan Fahd Arar (41 years) from Ramallah, who has been isolated since May 18, 2023, under the pretext of a speech he gave at the time of planning a strike in Ofer prison.


The prisoner described the situation by saying: "The isolation section lacks all the necessities of life, as the prisoner described it as worse than Guantanamo prison, and the food is very bad."


He added, "In case of shouting or drumming at the door, they take the prisoner to rooms and keep him handcuffed and feet tied for 24 hours."


He pointed out that the prisoners are subjected to beatings and attacks on the least things, and all the prisoners' belongings are withdrawn, even papers and pens, while they are deprived of splendor most of the time.


He said: "The mattress is brought from 10 in the evening until 10 in the morning, after which it is withdrawn throughout the day, even at night, without a pillow or a blanket."


He added: "The isolation prisoners tried to protest against the poor conditions of their isolation, so the prison administration fined them 450 shekels, and deprived them of the cantina and visits for two months, and every time the prisoners refused to come up with the number, they were fined 250 shekels," indicating that at the time of showering, The jailers stand at the window.

And he said: "Deliberate medical negligence against all isolated prisoners. The prisoner Ahmed Al-Shanab is beaten and dragged daily, as he is isolated on a Friday sermon, and the prisoner Shadi Ibrahim Amouri from the Jenin camp has been in isolation for 52 days, without any reason."


The prisoner Moez Hussein is isolated, and his condition is also very bad, while the prisoner Ahmed Al-Shamali, who was blessed with quadruplets, was subjected to fines, penalties and ill-treatment for smuggling the sperm.
