He was not suffering from any burns to his body at the time of his arrest.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n <\/p>\r\n\r\n Ziyara’s death raises the number of prisoners who have died in Israeli prisons since the outbreak of the Israeli war on Gaza on October 7 last year to 24, the statement added.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n <\/p>\r\n\r\n The statement placed full responsibility for Ziyara’s death on Israeli authorities and called on the international human rights community to hold the occupying Tel Aviv regime accountable for its crimes against Palestinian detainees.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n <\/p>\r\n\r\n Zionist regime keeps Palestinian inmates under deplorable conditions without proper hygienic standards. Palestinian inmates have also been subject to systematic torture, harassment, and repression.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n <\/p>\r\n\r\n Palestinian captives have continuously resorted to open-ended hunger strikes in an attempt to express outrage at their illegal detention.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n <\/p>\r\n\r\n Human rights organizations say Israel continues to violate all rights and freedoms granted to prisoners by the Fourth Geneva Convention and international laws. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n <\/p>\r\n\r\n According to the Palestine Detainees Studies Center, around 60 percent of the Palestinian prisoners detained in Israeli jails suffer from chronic diseases, a number of whom died in detention or after being released due to the severity of their cases.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n <\/p>","content_source":"","content_url":"","content_date_start":"2024-09-01 13:18:41","content_date_event":"2024-09-01 13:18:41","content_date_event_start":null,"content_date_event_end":null,"content_show_title_slider":1,"content_date_last_edit":"2024-09-01 13:19:19","content_date_register":"2024-09-01 13:19:19","content_columns":0,"content_show_img":1,"content_show_details":0,"content_show_related_img":0,"content_show_slider":1,"content_comment":1,"content_score":0,"tag_id":0,"score_average":null,"score_count":null,"score_date_last":null,"uid":43,"eid":0,"attach_title":"Rights groups:\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nPalestinian prisoner from Gaza dies in Israeli jail after medical negligence","attaches":[{"sizes":{"150":".\/cache\/2\/attach\/202409\/536224_1586554216_150_84.webp","300":".\/cache\/2\/attach\/202409\/536224_1586554216_300_167.webp","400":".\/cache\/2\/attach\/202409\/536224_1586554216_400_223.webp","600":".\/cache\/2\/attach\/202409\/536224_1586554216_600_335.webp","900":".\/cache\/2\/attach\/202409\/536224_1586554216_900_502.webp","1200":".\/cache\/2\/attach\/202409\/536224_1586554216_1000_558.jpg"},"ext":"jpg","file_media":1,"token":1586554216,"files":{"original":{"url":".\/file\/2\/attach\/202409\/536224_1586554216.jpg","width":1000,"height":558,"size":0}}}]}]]
