Israel Allows Red Cross Teams to Visit Security Prisons

Translation by SadaNews - The Hebrew newspaper Haaretz reported on Friday that Israel will allow Red Cross teams to visit the prisons where Palestinian prisoners are held.

The newspaper clarified, as translated by SadaNews, that the Red Cross teams will not be allowed to meet with the Palestinian prisoners directly.

It noted that this is the first measure taken since October 7, 2023.

It was revealed that this decision was made in the context of a petition submitted to the Supreme Court by human rights organizations, indicating that a representative of the Israeli "state" explained that the decision was made under direct orders from Benjamin Netanyahu.

Attorney Oded Feiler from the Civil Rights Association stated that there is no justification for preventing visits to the prisoners other than the desire to cover up the atrocities committed against them.
