Itamar Ben-Gvir, the far-right Israeli National Security Minister, visited the jail cell of long-imprisoned Palestinian leader Marwan Barghouti, during which he made threatening remarks. Footage of the incident showed Ben-Gvir confronting Barghouti with statements about the consequences of actions against Israel. The Palestinian Ministry of Foreign Affairs condemned the visit as an unprecedented provocation and labeled it as organized state terrorism. Barghouti's wife, Fadwa, described the inhumane treatment of Palestinian prisoners and expressed solidarity with her husband, emphasizing his resilience and connection to the struggle of their people.
"You won't win. Whoever messes with the nation of Israel, whoever murders our children and women we will wipe them out. You should know this, [this happened] throughout history."
"Ben-Gvir's actions were an unprecedented provocation and organised state terrorism, falling within the framework of the crimes of genocide, displacement, and annexation faced by the prisoners and our people."
"Marwan, chasing you and pursuing you even in the solitary cell you've been living in for two years, and the struggle of the occupation and its figures with you continues."
"The shackles are on your hands, but I know your spirit and determination, and I know you will remain free, free, free."
