The Palestinian Prisoners Society (PPS) accused the Israeli occupation forces of the "crime of enforced disappearance" against Palestinians after they were abducted from the Gaza Strip.

The Prisoners Society has stressed that "to date, the occupation refuses to disclose any clear information about the fate of Gaza detainees, although international human rights organizations repeatedly called for stopping this crime."

As "Israel" continues its genocidal war on the Gaza Strip for over 134 days "there are growing fears about more horrific crimes being committed against detainees," the PPS said.

The Prisoners Society also reported additional testimonies revealing unprecedented instances of Israeli torture against detainees in Gaza. The victims include women, children, the elderly, paramedics, doctors, and workers.

Moreover, the PPS affirmed, through multiple accounts of detainees, that the Israeli occupation has committed field executions throughout its military incursions into the Strip.

Finally, the organization renewed its plea to international human rights groups, urging prompt intervention to halt the Israeli occupation forces' ongoing crime of enforced disappearance against Palestinians in the Gaza Strip.

'Israel' committed 2,503 massacres in Gaza since Oct. 7

The Government Media Office in Gaza reported, earlier on Friday, that the Israeli occupation forces have committed 2,503 massacres since the beginning of their aggression on the Gaza Strip, which increases the number of Palestinians killed or missing since October 7 to 35,775.

Earlier, the Ministry of Health in Gaza announced in a statement that the number of Palestinians killed since the beginning of the Israeli aggression has risen to 28,775, in addition to 68,552 injured.

It confirmed that in 24 hours, Israeli occupation forces committed 10 massacres against families in Gaza, killing 112 Palestinians and injuring 157 others. 

The Ministry emphasized that many victims remain under the rubble, and are presumed dead, as the occupation forces have been deliberately preventing ambulances and civil defense crews from reaching them. 

It also pointed out that Israeli occupation forces raided the administration building of the Nasser Medical Complex in the main southern city of Khan Younis, forcing women and children to move from the old Nasser building without their belongings to the maternity building, which has been turned into a military barracks.
