“Today we renew our call on the Saudi authorities to release all Palestinian prisoners in Saudi Arabia. Most of them suffer from chronic diseases and they need medication on a regular basis. The lack of health care in the prisons threatens their lives,” they said in a joint press statement.
“In light of the intensified spread of coronavirus around the world, we ask the Saudi authorities to consider the release of these detainees in accordance with the Amnesty International’s directives,” they said.
Saudi Zio-Wahhabi regime is holding dozens of Palestinians in its jails who have been subjected to unjust trials over trumped up charges. Concern is growing among their families amid fears of the uncontrolled spread of coronavirus.
