Palestinians warn that a deterioration of conditions in Israeli controlled prison could result in clashes between them and the Israeli Prison Authority (IPA). They blame the IPA for exacerbating tension, direct provocation, and harassment of prisoners.
Among some of the reasons and grievances cited:
• Palestinians are sentenced to unreasonable and unlawful terms in the military courts.
• Administrative prison sentences are extended up to eight times, without indictments.
• The Israeli prison system has banned visits to some prisoners for several years and carries out forceful strip searches on prisoners.
• Prisoners are served unclean food.
• Prison guards perform surprise night raids and violently empty prisoners’ cells, breaking down walls, and engaging in ruthless searches for items like mobile telephones.
• The Israeli Prison Authority suspends studies at the university level for prisoners shortly before graduation to deprive them of the opportunity to graduate.
