Released Palestinians describe worsening abuses in Israeli prisons.

Some emerged from months of captivity emaciated and emotionally scarred.

Israeli officials have acknowledged that they have made conditions harsher for Palestinians in prisons.

Hard-line National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir boasted that prisons will no longer be “ summer camps”.

Since the war began, the Palestinian prison population has nearly doubled to almost 10,000 .

Israel says it has intentionally “reduced conditions” for Palestinian detainees “to the minimum required by law” since Oct. 7 .

The purpose, it says, “is to deter.. terror activities”.
