January 24, 2024
The Commission of Detainees’ Affairs reported this evening that the health condition of the injured detainees , Fayez Abu Sfaira and Amir Jayousi from Tulkarm, has stabilized, but they still need continuous treatment and medical care to overcome the effects of gunshot injuries caused by the occupation forces, as they invaded the city, the camp, and several towns in the governorate a few days ago.
The Commission stated that the injured detainee Abu Sfaira is currently in Mayer Hospital in the so-called Kfar Saba area. He was injured in his under-construction house in the town of Thennaba, feeling sudden pain in his back and abdomen. He was found to be shot in the back, with the bullet getting out from the abdomen. He asked for help from the Israeli soldiers, but instead, they arrested him. He was taken to the hospital, underwent surgery, and is currently held under strict guard, facing fabricated charges of helping a wanted person and possessing a weapon, despite finding nothing with him.
As for the the detainee Jayousi, he is being held in Al-Afula Hospital. While on the roof of his house in the Kettaba area, documenting the army's invasion and its crimes against innocent civilians. During that, he was shot in the abdomen from the right side. He underwent a surgery, and fabricated charges of weapon possession and military activity were imposed on him.
The Commission holds the Israeli occupation government and its prison administration fully responsible for their lives. It calls for serious attention to their cases, providing treatments and medications by specialized doctors, and refraining from transferring them to prisons in their current stable and challenging conditions.
The Commission urges international health, human rights, and humanitarian institutions to break their silence that make them accused of the ignorance towards male and female detainees, and inaction with the government of the occupation.
