The Israeli occupation forces have continued their aggression on the Gaza Strip, by land, air and sea, since October 7, 2023, which has resulted in the killing of at least 39,653 Palestinians, the majority of whom are children and women, and the injury of 91,535 others, in an incomplete toll, as thousands of victims are still under the rubble and on the roads, and ambulance and rescue crews cannot reach them.

In a statement on Tuesday, the Malaysian government said that the Israeli regime is clearly showing the world its arrogance by ignoring international calls for a ceasefire, and is determined to continue genocide and widespread destruction in Gaza.

Also on Tuesday, he Commission of Detainees and Ex-Detainees Affairs said that the Israeli occupation authorities are still detaining 86 female prisoners, all of them in Damon prison, and only two female prisoners in Al-Maskobiyya interrogation center .
The Commission’s lawyer was able to visit the prison and meet with two prisoners, Hadeel Shatara (32 years old) from the town of Al-Mazra’a Al-Sharqiya, east of Ramallah Governorate, who has been detained for two months and has been issued with an administrative detention order for 6 months, and Salwa Hamdan (45 years old), from Al-Dheisheh Camp in Bethlehem Governorate, who has been detained for 4 months with no charges.
The Commission explained that the general situation of female prisoners is still difficult and complex, and there are daily, intentional and deliberate practices aimed at harming them and affecting their psychology, without taking into account any of their privacy.
The past few days have witnessed a problem with the air circulation in the cells of the female prisoners, due to the prison administration spraying their rooms with insecticides, which led to the emission of bad odors that greatly affected their health, as they spend most of their time inside the rooms and do not go out for a break except for one hour each day.
The Commission confirmed that the living and health conditions in Al-Damon Prison are still the same, with punishments, deprivation, and indifference to the demands of female prisoners, as well as a shortage of clothing, food, and water, high temperatures and humidity, and other daily life needs, all of which are absent, and are used as a means of torture and deprivation.
