Gaza - Saba:
Palestinian detainee Khalil Ahmed Khalil Haniyeh, 35, from the Gaza Strip, was martyred as a result of torture in Zionist enemy prisons.
The Addameer Foundation for Human Rights in Gaza said in a statement today, Saturday, that it received on Thursday the news of the martyrdom of the detainee Haniyeh, in the Negev Prison.
Addameer indicated that Haniyeh was arrested from inside Abdullah al-Dahyan School in the Sheikh Radwan neighborhood of Gaza City on December 21, 2023, and is married and supports four members.
Addameer emphasized that the death of detainees by torture and medical neglect is a systematic policy that reflects a governmental and official approach practiced by the enemy forces against detainees in enemy prisons and camps, as stated in testimonies obtained by Addameer.
The martyrdom of Haniyeh is a war crime and contradicts the Basic Principles for the Treatment of Prisoners adopted by the UN General Assembly in 1979 and 1990.
Addameer held the international community responsible for the martyrdom of detainees in enemy prisons, and demanded the formation of a UN commission of inquiry into the circumstances of the martyrdom of detainees in enemy prisons, and to hold the perpetrators accountable.
Addameer also called on international organizations, including the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC), to intervene urgently and work to provide protection for Palestinian detainees, and to intensify visits to familiarize themselves with their conditions inside camps and enemy prisons.
