Palestinians say woman dies of wounds sustained in Israeli detention
JENIN, Palestinian Territories: A Palestinian woman died on Monday of wounds inflicted while she was held by Israeli forces two months ago, authorities in the occupied West Bank said.
“Former prisoner Wafaa Jarrar, 50, from Jenin… died Monday morning in Ibn Sina hospital in Jenin as a result of a very serious injury she sustained during her arrest,” the Palestinian Commission of Detainees and Ex-Detainees Affairs said.
Approached by AFP, the Israeli military said it was looking into the matter.
