Prisoners
The issue of Palestinians imprisoned by Israel and of their treatment is major as it affects tens of thousands inside prison at any one time and most families in Palestine include people who have been in prison. There is more information on prisoners here (see leaflet below), on child prisoners and on Abu Dis prisoners in our human rights reports.
