13 in a possible prisoner exchange deal. On the other hand, the bodies of about (253) female martyrs have been lying in the cemetery for decades5. While the number of Palestinian prisoners and detainees in the occupation prisons, by the end of the year, reached about (4400), including (40 ) female prisoners, the number of child and minor detainees reached (170). Israel also continued arresting (9) legislators from the Palestinian Legislative Council when the number of administrative detainees is about (380). Four prisoners died in the Israeli occupation detention: Noureddin AlBarghouti, Saadi Al-Gharabli, Daoud Al-Khatib, and Kamal Abu Waer6. The number of sick prisoners reached nearly (700), including (300) prisoners who suffer from chronic diseases and need continuous treatment and medical care. The occupation authorities adopt a policy of deliberate medical neglect against sick prisoners, making approximately (700) prisoners, who suffer from various diseases —the causes of which are due to the tough detention conditions, malnutrition and poor ventilation —(350) of whom are male and female prisoners suffering chronic diseases that need follow-up and permanent medical care. In addition, until the end of 2020, the spread of the Corona virus has increased significantly among Palestinian prisoners in the prisons of the Israeli occupation, and concerns for the prisoners’ lives are increasing due to the infection of dozens of sick prisoners, notable the elderly and those who suffer from chronic diseases and need continuous medical care. The majority of infections occurred during the last two months of the year. The number of injuries in Gilboa prison reached (100) during November. The rise in the number of infections confirmed the extent of the deliberate neglect by the Israeli Prison Authority administration in providing means of prevention and protection for the prisoners. 2.
