Three days from freedom: 64th Palestinian abductee dies in Israeli captivity

Twenty-year-old Palestinian abductee Musab Hassan Adili

Twenty-year-old Palestinian abductee Musab Hassan Adili has died at Soroka hospital in the Israeli-occupied territories, becoming the 64th Palestinian abducteeto die since the Israeli aggression on October 7, 2023.

According to the Commission of Detainees and Ex-Detainees Affairs and the Palestinian Prisoners' Society, Musab’s death happened only three days before his planned release.

Musab, a resident of the West Bank village of Osarin, was abducted by Israeli soldiers on March 22, 2024, and was subsequently sentenced to one and a half years in prison.

The groups also renewed their demand for the international human rights system to take effective decisions to hold the occupation leaders accountable for the war crimes they continue to commit against the Palestinian people, and to impose sanctions on the occupation.

Since the beginning of Israeli genocide in Gaza, at least 64 abductees have died, many of them because of torture.

However, the figure only represents the Palestinian abducteeswhose names are known, with many more unidentified Palestinian abductees suspected to have been killed after being kidnapped by Israeli forces.

Many Palestinians have died after suffering intense physical torture at the hands of their Israeli captors.

Palestinian abductees released back to Gaza have recounted their ordeal, saying they were subjected to mistreatment and torture at the hands of Israeli military and prison staff, adding to reports of misconduct within Israel's barracks and jails.

According to Gaza’s Health Ministry, at least 51,065 Palestinians have been confirmed dead and 116,505 wounded in Israel’s war on Gaza since it began 18 months ago.
