At the end of January 2020, there are at least 4,520 Palestinian security detainees and prisoners being held in Israel. At least 183 Palestinian minors are being held in Israeli prisons as security detainees and prisoners. They are held in appalling conditions with no regard to their health or protection. Often being crammed into one small cell with over 50 prisoners.

How does the covid-19 crisis affect the lives of Palestinian prisoners? What are the stories of resistance of these remarkable men and women?

We will be joined by Dr. Ramzy Baroud, one of the most influential writers of his generation to discuss the situation of Palestinian political prisoners in Israeli prisons.

Organized by The Palestine Chronicle and the University of Leeds Palestine Solidarity Group
