The Forgotten Captives: Israel Still Imprisoning 9,000 Palestinians Even After Hostage Deal [View all]

"Even after having released almost 2,000 people last week, the Israeli military is still holding about 9,000 Palestinians and what it calls security prisoners or detainees," says Sari Bashi, an Israeli American human rights lawyer and former program director at Human Rights Watch. "Only about a thousand of them have actually been convicted of any crime. The vast majority of people being held are being held without trial."
