The policy of medical ignorance is consistent against Palestinian detainees in Israeli prisons
*The policy of medical ignorance is consistent against Palestinian detainees in Israeli prisons. Cases in point are the detainees Abdullah Samhan from Gaza Strip, who is detained in Remon prison and sentenced to 19 years, the detainee Numan, in Nafha prison and the detainee Rehan from Gaza, sentenced to 20 years. All of them are suffering from critical health conditions, amid deliberate ignorance and procrastination by the administration of prisons in providing them with the appropriate medical care. *No developments on the issue of the striking detainee Khalil Awawdeh, in spite of his deteriorating health conditions. The Israeli courts still refusing to respond to his demands of ending his arbitrary detention, despite his critical health condition. He is currently held at the clinic of Al-ramla prison and suffers from severe pain all over his body. He was supposed to be freed last June, but the Israeli authorities extended his term to four months, which forced him to enter new hunger strike. * The detainee Ramzi Brash, Ashkelon prison, is in need of permanent medical treatment and suffers from many health problems. He was taken to a specialist physician and had preliminary checkups, and he was informed that he will undergo a surgery. However, the Israeli authorities intended to delay his surgery in spite of his urgent need for it.
