Female prisoner from Bethlehem describes detention in Damon prison





The Palestinian Prisoners’ Media Office has cited the following from Aisha Awad al-Obaidat from Bethlehem, who has been detained in Israel’s Damon prison since June 20:

  • During her lawyer’s visit, she revealed “systematic oppression” and said she and several other female detainees were subjected to several abusive incidents.
  • Gas was directly sprayed into their eyes, they were thrown to the ground, beaten on the back with shoes, and restrained with plastic handcuffs from behind.
  • Several tear gas bombs were used against them in two incidents.
  • One prisoner fainted and her blood pressure dropped without any medical examination. She was only given water to drink.
  • Another prisoner has been suffering from hand and foot twists since a previous incident at the hands of prison authorities without receiving treatment.
