Khaled Mahmoud Qasim Abdullah, a 41-year-old Palestinian detainee from Jenin refugee camp, has died in Israel’s Megiddo Prison, the Detainees and Ex-Detainees Affairs Commission and the Palestinian Prisoners Society (PPS) confirmed.
The Wafa news agency reported that Abdullah was held without charge under administrative detention since 9 November 2023. His family says he had no prior health issues before his arrest.
Rights groups accuse Israel of medical neglect and worsening mistreatment of detainees, especially since the war on Gaza began. His death adds to the growing number of Palestinians who have died in Israeli prisons in recent months.
