A media campaign aimed at saving Palestinian prisoners held in Israeli prisons was officially launched on Wednesday, seeking to draw international attention to the suffering of thousands of detainees and to mobilize broader global solidarity around their cause.
In a statement announcing the launch, organizers said the campaign aims to widen the scope of solidarity and place the issue of Palestinian prisoners at the center of international awareness, describing it as one of the most urgent and deeply humanitarian causes today.
The campaign said Palestinian prisoners are held under harsh and inhumane conditions, facing serious violations that include torture, prolonged solitary confinement, denial of medical treatment and family visits, administrative detention without charge, and the imprisonment of women and children under degrading conditions that violate international laws and conventions.
According to the statement, the six-month campaign seeks to unify legal, humanitarian, and media efforts at both the Arab and international levels to expose systematic crimes committed against detainees, pressure for improved detention conditions, and end policies of isolation and torture carried out by Israeli occupation authorities.
The campaign also calls for the immediate release of women and children prisoners and stresses that the protection of prisoners’ human dignity is an inherent right that is not subject to a statute of limitations.
Organizers emphasized that the campaign is not a symbolic or temporary act of solidarity, but rather a moral and humanitarian obligation, and a global message affirming that the suffering of prisoners is inseparable from the suffering of an entire people struggling for freedom and justice.
The campaign urged human rights organizations, media institutions, civil society groups, social media influencers, and people of conscience worldwide to actively engage in the initiative to ensure the prisoners’ cause remains visible in global public discourse until all detainees gain their full and unconditional freedom.
