At least ninety-eight Palestinian prisoners have died in Israeli custody since October 2023. That’s a staggering number, as the implications of these deaths point toward a quiet genocide.
The world’s legacy media refuses to properly address the “quiet genocide” of Palestinians disguised as a war against Hamas, a terrorist organization. Since October 2023, at least 98 Palestinian prisoners have died in Israeli custody. The Physicians for Human Rights Israel warns that the number is likely significantly higher. These are not combatants, but civilians who have perished from torture, abuse, medical neglect, and deliberate malnutrition in a system that has abandoned all pretense of international law and basic human decency, accoridng to a report by Natural News.
A whistleblower confirmed that sexual assault took place at the Sde Teiman facility, and no one has been charged for the deaths or assaults.
The data compiled paints a dreary picture of prisoners in Israel. Fifty-two of the reported deaths occurred in military custody, while 46 took place in Israel Prison Service custody. The victims were predominantly from Gaza and the West Bank, with some being Palestinian citizens of Israel.
For the first eight months of the war, the mortality rate averaged one death every four days, a shocking statistic that underscores the scale of the crisis. –Natural News.
Naji Abbas, director of the prisoners and detainees department at PHRI, told The Guardian that the official number does not represent a “full picture.” He said, “We are sure that there are still people who died in detention that we don’t know about.” Natural News claimed that this admission points to a policy of forced disappearance, where Israel withholds critical information, making it nearly impossible to trace the fate of hundreds of detained Palestinians from Gaza.
“Despite this mass number of deaths, over two years, no one has been arrested… There have been no charges over any killing,” Abbas said. He added that “every Palestinian in detention is in danger,” stating that the abuses are systemic rather than isolated incidents.
Genocide In Gaza Continues
These deaths are staining the moral fabric of Israel while diminishing its reputation on a global scale.
