The Palestinian Prisoners' Club announced on Thursday that 42-year-old Alaa Marwan Hamza al-Mahlawi died in Israeli detention, according to a report by the Palestinian news outlet Wafa.
According to the report, Mahlawi was imprisoned on 21 December 2023 and was married with four children. The report did not say what caused Mahlawi's death, but his family noted that he did not have any serious health conditions before being detained.
He was being held in the Negev prison in southern Israel.
With Mahlawi's death, the number of Palestinian prisoners who have died in Israeli detention since October 2023 has risen to 49. That number includes 30 prisoners from Gaza.
