According to Khaberni, on Saturday evening,
the Palestinian Prisoners and Liberators Authority and the Palestinian
Prisoners Club published the names of the second batch of released female
prisoners and children who will be released today, Saturday, as part of the
ceasefire agreement, totaling (39). At the top of this list was the
Jerusalemite prisoner Israa Riyadh Jameel Jaabis.
Jaabis is considered one of the icons of
Palestinian women inside Israeli prisons, having spent more than 8 years in
occupation prisons.
Jaabis, from the Jabal Mukaber area in
Jerusalem, is 37-years-old. She was married and had one child,
"Mu'tasim," when she was arrested at the age of just 4 years old.
She was arrested on October 11, 2015, near
a major military checkpoint in the Zaim area on the road leading to Jerusalem,
due to an explosion in her car. The Israeli authorities accused her of
attempting to carry out a bombing operation in Jerusalem against the occupation
forces. Following the explosion, a fire broke out inside her car.
The explosion resulted in Jaabis suffering
first, second, and third-degree burns covering about 60 percent of her body,
leading to deformities in her face, hands, chest, and erosion of 8 fingers from
her hands, along with the attachment of the ear to the head and face.
Israa needs to undergo six surgical and
cosmetic procedures to save her health, as she cannot serve herself without
assistance. She suffered during the period of imprisonment due to the lack of
necessary medical care, and the Israeli authorities, through the prison
administration, refused to perform necessary surgical and cosmetic procedures
for her physical, psychological, and health well-being, as stated by the former
spokesperson for the Prisoners Affairs Authority, Hasan Abdul Rabbu, earlier.
