Palestinian detainee from Bethlehem dies in Israeli custody

According to the Commission and PPS, Radaydeh is the second detainee to be declared dead in Israeli custody within four days. Following his detention and critical injury, he was held for a period at Israel’s Shaare Zedek Medical Center, where, according to available data and visitation records, his condition had later stabilized.

With Radaydeh’s death, the number of prisoners and detainees who have died since the beginning of the genocide has risen to 65, whose identities are known. At least 40 of these detainees are from Gaza.

This period has been the deadliest in the history of the Palestinian prisoner movement since 1967. As a result, the total number of Palestinian detainees who have died in Israeli prisons since 1967 has risen to 302. Meanwhile, the bodies of 74 deceased prisoners remain withheld, including 63 who died since the start of the genocide.

It is important to note that many detainees from Gaza remain subject to the crime of enforced disappearance.
