A large number of Palestinian detainees in Israel’s Etzion prison south of Bethlehem in the southern occupied West Bank are suffering from severe food poisoning after consuming spoiled food, a Palestinian prisoners’ rights group said, according to Anadolu.
“A lawyer for the Commission of Detainees’ Affairs, after visiting nine prisoners on Sunday at Etzion Detention Center, relayed that they had suffered poisoning after displaying similar symptoms following their meals,” said the Palestinian Prisoners Society.
“This is not the first instance of poisoning in Etzion, as similar cases have been recorded multiple times over the past few years,” it added.
