The club said that the prisoner Somoud Karajeh was brutally beaten by the prison guards of Ramle in central Israel.

Shireen Iraqi, a Prisoners Club's lawyer, quoted Karajeh as saying that Israeli Prison Authority transferred her from the Al-Damon prison, in the Haifa area, to the Ramle prison. Karajeh added that she was obliged to spend a night in Ramle prison before being transferred to the military court of Ofer for trial.

Karajeh told Iraqi that she sustained serious wounds and bruises in several parts of her body after the Israeli guards brutally beaten her by clubs.

The prisoner said that the attack came after she refused to go through naked body search. Karajeh added that she was also placed in solitary confinement as "punishment."

Meanwhile, a Palestinian prisoner said he will launch a hunger strike to protest the continuation of his imprisonment in Israeli jails.

Ra'fat Hamdouneh, the director of the Prisoners' Center for Studies, said that the prisoner Shadi Abu Al-Hsein will start the hunger strike on Tuesday.

Hamdouneh said that Hsein has ended his sentence term on Aug. 31 but Israel refused to release him under the pretext that he is not a holder of Palestinian ID to be released into Gaza Strip.

He called on international human rights organizations and the International Red Cross to pressure Israel to release Hsein into his town of Khan Younis, in southern Gaza Strip.
