On Thursday, Israeli Prison authorities released a wounded detainee from occupation prison, in addition to releasing journalist Ali Al-Samoudi after 1 year of detention.
The Commission of Detainees and Ex-Detainees Affairs and the Palestinian Prisoners’ Society (PPS) reported that Israeli prison authorities released the wounded detainee Qusay Ibrahim Ali Rayyan, 29, from occupation prison due to a decline in his health condition.
In a statement, the prisoner associations announced that Israeli authorities released the injured young man, a resident of the Salfit Governorate, after 2 weeks of being held in detention in Beilinson Hospital.
On April 15, Rayyan was shot and injured by an illegal colonizer, before being abducted by occupation forces near the village of the town of Qarawat Bani Hassan, northwest of Salfit in the central West Bank.
Occupation authorities detained Rayyan at the Beilinson Hospital in Israel, where he underwent multiple surgeries, before his condition significantly deteriorated.
Meanwhile, the Israeli prison authorities released Palestinian journalist Ali Al-Samoudi, 59, after serving one year of administrative detention.
In a statement, the PPS reported that occupation authorities released Al-Samoudi from the Negev prison in Israel, after one year of imprisonment.
It added that Al-Samoudi, a veteran journalist and resident of Jenin city in the northern West Bank, was abducted by occupation forces on Aril 29, 2025.
It is important to mention that Israeli soldiers shot Ali Al-Samoudi in the back during the same attack that killed Palestinian journalist Shireen Abu Akleh, 51, while they were performing their journalistic duties in the Jenin refugee camp.
