The Palestinian Prisoners' Society stated on Monday that Palestinian prisoner movement leaders detained in Israeli prisons—specifically the Megiddo and Ganot facilities—are facing escalating dangers. Citing the case of 55-year-old Hamas commander Hassan Salama, the association reported that he was shot by prison guards on September 15. On the same day, Israel's far-right National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir stormed his cell and filmed a video threatening to kill him. The organization noted that the imprisoned leaders are facing "various forms of physical and psychological torture, systematic repression, and open death threats" from Ben-Gvir.
