The Israeli court extended the detention of Jerusalemite prisoner Tasneem Barakat Odeh until September 18. She was released as part of the Free Syrian Army (Flood of the Free) deal, but was re-arrested in December 2024 and charged with incitement.
Odeh appeared in court with her hands and feet shackled and led to the prison by Israeli soldiers, showing signs of exhaustion and fatigue.
It is worth noting that the enemy issued an arbitrary decision to deport her from Jerusalem and deprive her of her family, along with two Jerusalemite prisoners released in the exchange deal.
Tasneem sent a letter from Damon prison, expressing her longing for freedom, her mother, and food. She stated that female prisoners are subjected to severe pressure and hurtful language from the jailers.
She explained that she is being held in Room 10 of Damon prison with six other female prisoners under harsh conditions. She said that she had dreamed of becoming a lawyer, but her detention prevented her from completing her graduation project, which was scheduled for last January.
The total number of prisoners and detainees in Israeli prisons is approximately (10,800). This number does not include detainees held in Israeli military camps. This figure represents the highest number of prisoners and detainees since the Al-Aqsa Intifada in 2000, based on documentary data available to institutions.
The number of female prisoners in Israeli prisons is (50), including two from Gaza, while the number of child prisoners is more than (450).
By the beginning of July, the number of administrative detainees had reached 3,629, which is the highest percentage compared to the number of prisoners and detainees who are under arrest, convicted, or classified as “illegal combatants.”
