A tragic incident occurred in Tulkarm as 19-year-old Palestinian Zahir Tahseen Raddad lost his life while under Israeli detention. Following serious injuries sustained during an Israeli siege, Raddad was hospitalized and then passed away at the Israeli Meir Hospital. Reports indicate he was not only shot by Israeli forces but also used as a human shield, further highlighting the inhumane treatment endured by Palestinian prisoners. Despite his critical condition, Israeli authorities prolonged his detention until his untimely death.
The Palestinian Prisoners Society and Prisoners Affairs Commission denounced this heinous act, labeling it as part of the larger brutal campaign waged by the Israeli occupation against Palestinians. From arbitrary arrests to physical abuse, this incident sheds light on the ongoing atrocities faced by Palestinians across the occupied territories.
