RAMALLAH, Thursday, July 4 2024 (WAFA) – Director-General of the Palestinian Prisoner’s Society (PPS) Abdullah al-Zaghari said that the United Nations’ approval and condemnation of the occupation court system is an important step.
Al-Zaghari added in a statement that the occupation's judicial system, which the occupying state used as a legal cover for its crimes, including the military courts, that has been completely exposed in light of the ongoing genocide waged against the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip.
Al-Zaghari pointed to the issue of administrative detainees as an example and how the occupation’s military court system contributed to its escalation in an unprecedented manner since the beginning of the Israeli aggerssion on the Strip.
Al-Zaghari also pointed out to the serious violations committed in trials against children, with the complete absence of the minimum conditions and guarantees for a fair trial stipulated by international standards.
He called for the need to make more efforts at the international human rights level in order to stop the ongoing and comprehensive aggression against the Palestinian people, along with the issue of detainees held inside Israeli jails and camps.
"The world today must realize that the danger of the continuation of the occupation and its crimes does not only affect the Palestinians, but also affects human society," added Al-Zaghari.
