A group of recently released Palestinian detainees from Israeli jails, detained for months near their homes in Gaza, describe the torture and harsh conditions faced by Palestinians inside. Surrounded by their families, they recount the torment and abuse endured during interrogations, including physical and verbal assaults. They detail the dire conditions in the cells, with overcrowding, disease outbreaks, and minimal food. Among them is the Director of Al Shifa Hospital, who was released after spending eight months in detention. Dr. Muhammad Abu Salmiya gave a harrowing account of his treatment. The Palestinian Prisoner Association reports that around 10,000 Palestinians are held in Israeli jails, with many never charged or tried. Despite Israel's claims of adherence to international law, the testimonies and scars of these detainees suggest otherwise. Al Jazeera’s Charles Stratford Reports.
