well as interviews with
lawyers and both former and
current prisoners.
Mr. Goldstein's report
states that, in general, in-
mates receive basic neces-
sities, food is adequate and
they are not subjected to
physical abuse by guards.
But the report says that a
two-tier system exists in
Israel: well-kept civilian
prisons, run by the Israel
Prison Service, and a net-
work of detention centers,
run by Israel Defense Force,
for Palestinians from the
West Bank and Gaza Strip.
Although conditions in the
IDF prison camps were
better than those reported
during 1988 and 1989, Mr.
Goldstein writes, "the IDF
has been negligent in pro-
viding appropriate facilities
for its detainees, in view of
the long periods that in-
mates are held in the
camps."
His report also highlights
problems faced by detainees
at Ketziot, the tent camp
detention center in the
Negev where over 6,000 Pa-
lestinians — some sentenced,
others awaiting trial and
about 1,000 in "adminis-
trative detention" — are be-
ing held under the authority
of the IDF.
Ketziot, located in Israel
proper, is in a closed
military area, making visits
from family members in the
territories extremely
difficult. "Virtually no fami-
ly visits have taken place
since it opened three years
ago," the report says.
Inmates live in tents,
which do not afford protec-
tion from the extreme
summer heat nor from the
cold winter nights, Mr.
Goldstein wrote.
In addition, the report says
the camp's location within
Israel proper is an infringe-
ment of the Fourth Geneva
Convention of 1949, which
regulates the treatment of
civilians living under oc-
cupation. The convention
states that persons accused
or convicted of offenses must
be detained in the occupied
country.
Unlike at other camps,
tension between inmates
and staff at Ketziot is very
high; mail service is
backlogged and subject to
censorship; few books are
allowed in and lawyers com-
plain of being able to spend
little time with their clients,
the report said.
Israeli officials, asked
several times to comment on
the report, declined all op-
portunities to do so, saying
they had not received a copy
as yet.
