Israel is holding dozens of Palestinians from Gaza isolated in an underground jail where they never see daylight.
They are deprived of adequate food, are barred from receiving news of their families or the outside world, and suffer regular beatings and violence consistent with well-documented torture in other Israeli dungeons.
The detainees includ at least two civilians held for months without charge or trial: a nurse detained in his scrubs, and a young food seller, according to lawyers from the Public Committee Against Torture in Israel (PCATI) who represent both men.
The prison was opened in the early 1980s to house a handful of the most dangerous organised crime figures in Israel but closed a few years later on the grounds that it was inhumane. The war criminal Ben-Gvir ordered it back into service after the 7 October attacks.
