Khalida Jarrar, Palestinian human rights activist, feminist, leftist, and former member of the Palestinian Legislative Council, detained since December 26, has been held in solitary confinement in very harsh conditions for 80 days now, since August 12, in Neve Tirza prison.

She is detained in a cell measuring only 2 meters by 1.5 meters, where the only available space is occupied by a mattress. The cell is completely closed, with no windows for ventilation or fresh air.

For 80 days, she feels a lack of oxygen and the inability to breathe, and it is still very hot in the cell during the day. She has requested at least paper and a pen to write, to stay aware and keep track of time, but none of these have been provided.

Her isolation, like that of Marwan Barghouti, Abdallah Barghouti, and other leaders of the prisoners' movement, is an attempt by the occupying forces to break the resistance of Palestinian prisoners in a decisive phase of the national liberation struggle.

Like her detention itself — she is jailed without charge or trial under administrative detention, alongside nearly 3500 of the 10,100 Palestinians imprisoned by the occupation regime — no reason or excuse has been proffered by the occupation authorities to justify her ongoing isolation.

Her solitary confinement is just one illustration of the occupation's torture and aggression against Palestinian prisoners. We must mobilize to break the isolation that the occupation forces are trying to impose in the colonial prisons, in support of the Palestinian resistance, and call for the immediate release of all Palestinian prisoners.
