Israeli forces raid prison, injure four Palestinian prisoners

Ma’an – Four Palestinian detainees were injured Friday as Israeli forces raided Eshel prison, a prisoners' society said.

Clashes broke out when Israeli forces attacked detainee Imad Al-Mardawn, the society said, adding that forces threatened to use Taser guns.

Detainees said they would go on hunger strike Saturday in protest over the incident, and would file a complaint to the Israel's Supreme Court to demand an investigation.
