For the first time ever, Israel holds more than 11,000 Palestinian "security" detainees and prisoners. This record-breaking number has extremely concerning human rights implications. See the detainee and prisoner data going back to 2008 on our website: hamoked.org/prisoners-ch...

Mahmoud has cancer and lives in a neighborhood cut off from the rest of Jerusalem by the Separation Wall.

In some prisons, lawyer–client meetings are limited to 20 minutes. Prison officials eavesdrop and even read affidavits we take from detainees — a blatant breach of confidentiality. Clients have become fearful to speak openly with their legal counsel. www.haaretz.com/israel-news/...

Instead, they must choose from checkpoints that are extremely crowded, plagued with long lines, and closed without warning. HaMoked is challenging this policy: www.haaretz.com/israel-news/...
