Supreme Court Justice Ruth Ronen made an unannounced visit to Ofer Prison to examine the conditions of detention for Gazan terrorists, Kan News reported on Motzei Shabbos.
She requested to visit the wing where “illegal combatants from Gaza” who were captured after the October 7 assault are incarcerated.
Ronen has recently held several hearings regarding petitions submitted by terrorists regarding their detention conditions.
During the visit, she checked whether the terrorists were provided with adequate winter clothing, examined the toilet paper supply to their cells, and checked whether the guards provided them with paper and pens to file legal appeals.
UTJ chairman Yitzchak Goldknopf responded to the report by stating: “As long as our brothers and sisters are suffering from cold and poor conditions in Hamas captivity and are not receiving visits from the Red Cross, the State of Israel should not allow visits to check the conditions of the Hamas monsters imprisoned in Israel.”

Goldknopf, congrats! Those are about the first words of wisdom – real wisdom – I heard from your mouth. This Ronen judge should become the legally officially Supreme Court Justice in the newly developing Syria
Seemingly her views are in line. Get me Julani on the phone – I’m going to suggest it.

This Israeli Supreme Court had Kong been there.
