JENIN, Sunday, April 19, 2020 (WAFA) – Palestinian political prisoner in Israeli detention Muhanna Sha‘ban Zyoud has completed 15 years behind Israeli prison bars, said the Palestinian Prisoner Society.
Zyoud, who comes from the town of Silat al-Harithiya in the occupied West Bank, was arrested on April 19, 2005, and was sentenced 25 years in prison for his activism in the armed resistance against the Israeli occupation.
Like many Palestinian prisoners in Israeli jails, Zyoud has been denied family visitation several times by the Israeli occupation authorities as a punishment against him and his entire family.
The Israeli occupation authorities are still incarcerating more than 5,000 Palestinian and Arab prisoners for resisting its occupation of their homeland.
