Resistance will teach Israel unforgettable lessons for atrocities against Palestinians: Hamas

The Palestinian Hamas resistance movement has denounced the death of another Palestinian abductee at an Israeli-run detention center in the occupied territories, vowing to teach the regime unforgettable lessons for its ongoing atrocities against Palestinians.

“The occupiers committed the seventh execution of our prisoners from the occupied West Bank, with the assassination of Abdul Rahman al-Bahsh at Megiddo Prison,” the Gaza-based group said in a statement released late on Monday.

“We condemn the continuation of such assassinations amid the silence of international human rights bodies and advocacy groups for prisoners of war,” the statement added.

Hamas noted that the deaths of Palestinian abductees would eventually harm the occupying Tel Aviv regime.

In a separate statement, Hamas also urged the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) and human rights organizations to shoulder their responsibilities concerning Palestinian abductees.

Israel ‘assassinates’ sixth Palestinian prisoner since Operation Al-Aqsa Storm began

Israel ‘assassinated’ another Palestinian prisoner in a detention center, the sixth since Operation Al-Aqsa Storm began in Gaza, a rights group says.

The Palestinian resistance group highlighted that female Palestinian abductees are encountering systematic and arbitrary malnutrition and medical negligence.

“We urge international human rights institutions to shed light on the challenges that Palestinian prisoners, particularly the 76 female detainees who mostly hail from the Gaza Strip, are facing at Israeli prisons. Human rights organizations need to document such violations, and take them to competent courts,” Hamas stated.

“Certainly and equivocally, Zionist criminal leaders and liable figures will be held accountable for these heinous violations and acts of cruelty,” the statement read.

The Commission of Detainees and Ex-Detainees Affairs announced in a statement on Monday evening that Bahsh, 23, who had been imprisoned since May 31, 2022, and later sentenced to jail time for “security offenses”, had died at Megiddo Prison.

The commission stated that the Israel Prison Service (IPS) inconsiderately continues to assassinate more Palestinian detainees in its detention centers, and subjects them to systematic torture and abuse.

The death of Bahsh, who was affiliated with the Fatah resistance movement, brought to seven the number of Palestinian abductees who have died in Israeli detention centers since October 7 after Gaza-based resistance groups launched Operation Al-Aqsa Storm.

Israel admits jail guards severely beat Palestinian prisoner to death

Nearly 20 Israeli prison guards have severely beaten a Palestinian inmate to death, according to a report

There are reportedly more than 7,000 Palestinians held in Israeli jails. Hundreds of the inmates have been apparently incarcerated under the practice of administrative detention.

Human rights organizations say Israel violates all the rights and freedoms granted to prisoners by the Fourth Geneva Convention. They say administrative detention violates their right to due process since the evidence is withheld from prisoners while they are held for lengthy periods without being charged, tried, or convicted.

Palestinian detainees have continuously resorted to open-ended hunger strikes in an attempt to express outrage at their detention. Israeli jail authorities keep Palestinian prisoners under deplorable conditions without proper hygienic standards. Palestinian inmates have also been subject to systematic torture, harassment, and repression.
