On Monday, 30 June 2025, Palestinian prisoners’ institutions reported the martyrdom of Louay Faisal Mohammed Nasrallah (Turkman), 22, imprisoned by the occupation, in Soroka Hospital. He had been suddenly transferred to the hospital after being held in the Naqab prison. Samidoun Palestinian Prisoner Solidarity Network mourns and salutes the martyr, and extends our condolences to his family and loved ones, the Palestinian prisoners’ movement and the Palestinian people as a whole.
Louay Nasrallah Turkman, from the city of Jenin, had been imprisoned without charge or trial under “administrative detention” since 26 March 2024, when he was abducted from his home by occupation forces. His family reported that, at the time of his arrest, he had no health issues or medical problems and was a healthy, active young man. He was held in the Naqab prison, which is infamous for the prison administration’s policies of forced overcrowding, starvation, and denial of hygiene products and medical care, which has led to the rampant spread of the scabies skin disease inside the desert prison.
He is at least the 73rd identified martyr of the prisoners’ movement since 7 October 2023, of at least 310 martyrs of the prisoners’ movement since 1967 (data is not compiled for the period 1948–1967). The occupation continues to imprison his body, as it does the bodies of hundreds of Palestinians, including at least 82 martyred prisoners—71 of them since the launch of the Al-Aqsa Flood.
The martyrdom of Palestinian prisoners—today, Louay Nasrallah—is part of an assassination campaign inside the occupation’s prisons and detention camps, carried out through institutionalized physical and psychological torture, beatings, starvation, sexual assault, the spread of contagious disease (particularly scabies), and the deliberate denial of medical care. This takes place in parallel with the ongoing, escalated genocide in Gaza and throughout occupied Palestine. These war crimes and crimes against humanity are compounded by the denial of family and legal visits, preventing any external monitoring of the mistreatment suffered by imprisoned Palestinians. All imprisoned Palestinians, and especially the leaders of the prisoners’ movement, are living under an ongoing threat to their lives due to the occupation’s policy of “slow assassination.”
Every dollar, euro, and pound exchanged with the occupation; every weapon given to its genocidal forces; and every intelligence-sharing and police-training mission between the Zionist project and the imperialist powers—especially the US, Canada, France, Germany, Britain, and EU countries—are evidence of full complicity in the ongoing genocide, war crimes, and crimes against humanity against Palestinian prisoners and the Palestinian people as a whole.
In memory and honor of Louay, and all of the martyrs, wounded and prisoners of Palestine, and of the resistance that continues to meet the occupiers and genocidaires with fire, we urge all to organize and take action, to escalate the struggle in the imperial core, to bring the genocide to an end, to break the siege on Gaza, to free the Palestinian prisoners and to free Palestine from the river to the sea.
