In the same context, Israeli media talked about the decision of extremist Israeli Police Minister Itmar Ben-Gvir who ordered showering time to be reduced to four minutes per prisoner.

On February 4, Palestinian prisoners sent a message from inside the Israeli occupation prisons asking their citizens to prepare to wage a major battle against the oppression of Ben-Gvir.

In their message, the prisoners stressed their readiness for all possibilities and called for Palestinians to protest in different areas of the occupied land.
