The Palestinian Ministry of Foreign (FM) Affairs demanded the opening of an international investigation into the circumstances of the death of the captive Saadiya Farajallah (68 years), from the town of Ithna, west of Hebron.
Today, Saturday, the ministry held the occupation authorities fully responsible for the death of the female prisoner, Farajallah, the oldest female prisoner in Israeli prisons, bringing the number of martyrs of the captive movement to 230, according to the Wafa news agency.
The ministry called on the international community, the International Red Cross, and all relevant institutions, organizations, and councils of the United Nations, including the Security Council and the Human Rights Council, to assume their legal and moral responsibilities toward the deliberate medical neglect of prisoners in the occupation’s prisons.
The Palestinian ministry urges the international community to take the necessary measures to ensure the protection and bettering treatment of the prisoners as prisoners of war in accordance with the Geneva Conventions, and their immediate release.
