Israel is engaged in dangerous negotiations to get back about 240 people held by Hamas and other terrorist groups in Gaza after the October 7 attack. In exchange for their release , the Israeli government has a very important trading relationship with Palestine: thousands of Palestinian prisoners are locked up in Israeli prisons.
All of the Palestinian prisoners were tried by Israeli military courts, which are very different from the civil courts that deal with Jewish people. This system and the military command that governs it resulted from Israel’s occupation of the Palestinian territories in 1967.
In this video, two experts explain the Israeli military court, why it has become the focus of displeasure from human rights organizations, and why it has affected the Palestinian prisoner trade in history.
