Fares Baroud, 51
A Palestinian detainee died on Wednesday evening in Israeli jails after his health seriously worsened due to deliberate medical neglect by the Israel Prison Service.
The Prisoners Media Office said that Fares Baroud, 51, was the longest-serving Palestinian prisoner from the Gaza Strip in Israeli jails.
The Israeli occupation authorities on Tuesday transferred Baroud to the intensive care unit at the hospital of Raymond jail after he suffered serious health complications.
A resident of al-Shati refugee camp in the Gaza Strip, Baroud was arrested in 1991 and sentenced to life imprisonment and 35 years on charges of killing an Israeli settler.
He had not been able to see any of his family members in the last 18 years based on an order by the Israel Prison Service.
Baroud was supposed to be freed along with 30 long-serving Palestinian prisoners who Israel had vowed to release as part of attempts to revive negotiations with the Palestinian Authority in late 2013.
However, Israel backtracked on the move and suspended the release for "political reasons".
A year ago, Baroud's mother, who lost her sight before she could see her son after over 18 years of absence, died.
The Palestinian Detainees and Ex-Detainees Affairs Commission said that the Israel Pirson Service had pursued a deliberate medical neglect policy against Baroud who was suffering from serious health problems.
The commission held the Israel Prison Service at Raymond jail and the Israeli government responsible for the crime, after which the number of Palestinian detainees who died while in Israeli custody jumped to 209.

Abdullah Taleb, 20
A Palestinian youth was killed and another injured on Monday evening by Israeli gunfire in Jenin.
Israeli media sources claimed that two armed Palestinians opened fire at Israeli soldiers at al-Jalama checkpoint, and the latter responded, killing one of them and injuring the other.
The Palestinian Red Crescent Society said that a seriously injured youth was taken to hospital for treatment, but the medical crews could not reach the other.
According to eyewitnesses, the Israeli soldiers stationed at al-Jalama checkpoint opened fire at two Palestinian youths on a motorbike killing one of them.
Local sources later reported that Abdullah Taleb, 20, the martyr, was handed over to the Red Crescent at al-Jalama checkpoint.
The same sources affirmed that Abu Taleb suffered a serious injury before he was left to bleed to death.
Israeli Soldiers Kill One Palestinian, Injure Another, Near Jenin
Israeli soldiers killed, on Monday evening, one Palestinian teen and injured another, near the entrance of the al-Jalama village, northeast of Jenin in northern West Bank.
The army claimed that Palestinians were riding a motor cycle and “hurled an explosive at the soldiers,” and did not report any injuries.
Mahmoud Sa’adi, the director of the Emergency Department of the Palestinian Red Crescent in Jenin, said the slain Palestinian has been identified as Abdullah Faisal Omar Tawalba, 19, from the al-Jalama village, and added that Omar Ahmad Hanana, 15, was injured but is in a stable condition.
Palestinian medical sources said the medics moved the slain Palestinian, and the wounded teen, to Jenin Governmental Hospital.
They added that Tawalba was shot with several live rounds in the head and legs.
Eyewitnesses said the two were riding a motorcycle near the village, when the soldiers opened fire at them, and denied the Israeli military allegation, stating that the army will say anything to justify murdering Palestinians.
They added that the two Palestinians were riding their motorcycle back home, in al-Jalama and ‘Arrana villages near Jenin, while returning from work.
The Israeli army did not report any injuries among the soldiers, and only issued a brief statement regarding the incident, alleging that the two Palestinians “arrived at the checkpoint riding a motorcycle, and hurled an explosive at the soldiers, causing no injuries.”
It is worth mentioning that the army holds the corpses of slain Palestinians suspected of attacking soldiers or colonialist settlers but did not hold Tawalba’s body, and local medics moved his corpse to Jenin Governmental Hospital.
Jenin Governor Akram Rajoub said the Israeli army “seems to have ready justifications for murdering Palestinians, in order to pass these crimes as acts of self-defense by the soldiers,” and added that “these lies, and fabrications are encouraged by the political leaders in Israel.”
Osama al-Qawasmi, a member of the Revolutionary Council of Fateh Movement and its spokesperson in Jenin, called on media outlets not to be mislead by statements made by the Israeli army and media outlets that have the only aim of justifying crimes committed by the soldiers against unarmed Palestinian civilians.
“It seems that every time Israel approaches election, the crimes against the Palestinians, their homes and lands increase,” he added.
On Sunday, a Palestinian man, identified as Ahmad Ghazi Abu Jabal, 30, died of critical wounds he sustained last week, after being shot by Israeli forces offshore the town of Beit Lahia, north of Gaza.
Abu Jabal, from the Sheja’eyya neighborhood east of Gaza city, was shot and seriously injured, on January 29 2019, during a naval procession along Beit Lahia Sea and shore, in northern Gaza.
