Health condition of Palestinian captives Hajoj and Abu Srour deteriorating due to medical negligence in Israeli occupation jails

International

The Palestinian Prisoners and Ex-Prisoners Affairs Commission has warned that deliberate medical negligence and arbitrary practices by the Israeli occupation authorities have led to the deterioration of the health condition of the Palestinian captives in the Israeli jails – Ihab Hajoj and Ashraf Abu Srour.

In a statement on Saturday, the commission said that prisoner Hajoj, who was detained in 2014, has been suffering over the past three years from pain in his chest, neck and backbone that prevents him from moving easily due to the torture practiced against him by the occupation’s jail authorities.

 The commission added that Abu Srour, who was detained in 2001, has lost most of his teeth and he suffers from gum inflammation that causes difficulties in eating. He also suffers from pain in his stomach and back and he can’t see well.

The commission clarified that the occupation authorities refuse to provide necessary treatment for these two prisoners, putting their lives at risk.

Some 4600 Palestinian prisoners are facing difficult detention circumstances in the Israeli jails. 1800 of these prisoners suffer from various illnesses, while 700 of them badly need urgent treatment, particularly those with cancer, kidney failure and hemiplegia.
