Israel Prevents Families of Exiled Prisoners from Traveling to Egypt
PALESTINIAN PRISONERS’ SOCIETY:
The Palestinian Prisoners’ Society said that Israeli authorities are pursuing a policy of “collective punishment” against freed prisoners exiled to Egypt by preventing their families from traveling to meet them since their release.
In a statement on Wednesday, the Society’s head, Abdullah Al-Zughari, said that dozens of the exiled prisoners suffer from critical health conditions and are in dire need of medical care and family support.
He added that Israel “did not stop at depriving them of their freedom for years but continues to punish them after their release by denying family visits,” citing the case of released prisoner Moatasem Raddad, who died in Egypt after being barred from seeing his family even in his final moments.
According to a previous statement by the Society, Israel has exiled around 383 freed prisoners to Egypt following various prisoner exchange deals since October 2023, noting that the vast majority remain in Egypt to this day.
