Israeli repression units raided today section 2 in the Israeli prison of Ktzi'ot, in the Naqab desert, where Palestinian political detainees are incarcerated, and brutally assaulted and clashed with them, according to the Prisoners and Ex-Prisoners Affairs Committee.

The Committee confirmed in a statement reached Safa that this attack comes as a continuation of the policy of abuse and revenge against our prisoners and an attempt to impose a fait accompli policy inside prisons and detention centers.

The Israeli prison’s repression units are composed of heavily trained soldiers armed with knives, batons, teargas canisters, electric sticks and other means of repression. The soldiers are especially trained to attack Palestinian political prisoners and keep them under constant crackdown.
