A freshly released Palestinian prisoner described Israeli jails as "graveyards for the living," detailing horrifying stories of torture, overcrowding, and demeaning treatment during his seven-year incarceration, Anadolu reported.

Mahmoud Samer Jabarin, a resident of the Jenin Refugee Camp in the northern occupied West Bank, was released on Saturday as part of the exchange deal with "Israel".

Detained on February 4, 2019, and sentenced to ten years in jail, Jabarin told Anadolu after being released that he spent 7 years in the prison system, recalling how the period during the war on Gaza was the hardest. "We endured torture, beatings, and humiliation.”

He described the dreadful living conditions and recounted how prisoners were completely cut off from the world, beaten, tortured, and given barely any food.

Jabarin highlighted the brutality that detainees faced, frequently in the middle of the night. "Israeli special forces would storm our cells at 2 am, assaulting us, spraying us with cold water, and firing tear gas without any reason," he said. 

"Each room, barely 12 square meters, housed 12 prisoners with no mattresses," according to Jabarin.

Israeli occupation forces also hurdled verbal abuse regularly, according to Jabarin, detailing how they were often told they should not be alive and "deserve to be crushed."

Jabarin thanked everyone who helped in their release and expressed he wished to return to his home in Jenin Refugee Camp. However, he could not amid the large-scale aggression initiated by the IOF.
