Palestinian prisoner threatened by Ben-Gvir was given only painkillers even though he was injured with 9 bullets

Gufran Zamil, the fiancée of Palestinian prisoner Hasan Selame, whom Israel's far-right Minister of National Security Itamar Ben-Gvir raided his cell and threatened with execution, said that her fiancée was seriously injured with 9 bullets as a result of the fire opened by Israeli forces during the raid, but she was taken to the infirmary 3 days later, given painkillers and put back into solitary confinement.

Ben-Gvir, who raided Palestinian prisoner Selame's cell in September, threatened the Palestinian prisoner with execution and shared the footage of those moments on his social media account. In the footage, Ben-Gvir said to Selame, who was very weak and standing with his beard growing, "I want to kill you. I want to sentence you to death." He was seen making threats.

Zamil, the fiancée of Palestinian prisoner Hasan Selame, told the AA correspondent that they were able to obtain information from her fiancee, whom they had not heard from for a long time after the raid in September, only yesterday through her lawyer.

9 bullets hit his body

Stating that his fiancée was beaten during the raid on September 15 and that he was hit by 9 bullets in his body as a result of the fire opened by Israeli forces, Zamil said, "Selame was taken to the infirmary only 3 days later, her injuries were seen, and then she was given painkillers and put back into solitary confinement." he said.

Zamil stated that the lawyer who visited Selame yesterday could not detect the areas of bullet wounds on his body, but the marks of the blow were still clearly visible and his fiancée looked more exhausted than in the video published by Ben-Gvir.

"He said to Ben-Gvir, 'You have no right to threaten me with death'"

Zamil said Selame said to Ben-Gvir, who threatened him, "I am Palestinian, I have the right to defend my people and my land. You, on the other hand, have no right to come and threaten me with execution after the genocide you committed in Gaza." he said.

Stating that the lawyer last visited Selame in August and that they did not hear from his fiancée until his visit on November 2, Zamil emphasized that they experienced great concern during this period.

Stating that his fiancée was threatened with being beaten again if he told the lawyer about his experiences, Zamil said that Selame was able to give a little information about his health condition despite the threats.

"Another genocide is taking place in Israeli prisons"

Pointing out that the international community could not stop the attacks even though the events in Gaza were recorded for 2 years, Zamil said that it is unlikely that the international community will take action for the Palestinian prisoners who are kept away from the eyes and cameras in prisons.

Zamil stated that the only thing they could do was to try to improve the prison conditions of the prisoners by filing a lawsuit through lawyers in the 1948 territory.

"Another genocide is taking place in prisons." Zamil called on the international community to improve the conditions of Palestinian prisoners.

Who is Hasan Selame?

Hasan Salame, who participated in the First Intifada in 1987, is held responsible by Israel for the bombings that resulted in the death and injury of dozens of people.

Salame, known as the "Hero of the Holy Revenge Acts", was sentenced to life imprisonment 48 times.

Israel rejected Salame's release in the prisoner exchange agreement in 2011.
