Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir conducted a raid on Negev Prison, where thousands of Palestinian detainees are held, and issued orders to confiscate the remaining clothing belonging to prisoners, Shehab Wire reported. The directive marks a new escalation in a policy of restrictions and punitive measures against those incarcerated at the facility.
The confiscation order adds to a series of hardened conditions imposed on Palestinian detainees held in Israeli custody. Prison officials have implemented the measure as part of broader restrictions affecting daily life within the facility. The raid by Ben Gvir underscores intensifying pressure on the detainee population held at one of Israel's largest detention centers.
