Palestinian Prisoners' Directorate in Jenin appealed to the Committee of the Red Cross Society (CRCS) and international HR organizations to intervene to save the lives of two Palestinian prisoners.

The Directorate said today that Majed Tazaz'a and Yasser Nazzal, both from Qabatiya, are suffering from medical disregard.

It said that prisoner Tazaz'a, imprisoned in Majedo jail, spent more than 10 months in administrative detention, affirming that he suffers from heart problems.

The Directorate added his conditions have deteriorated during the last weeks because of medical negligence.

The directorate also said that prisoner Nazzal is suffering from a serious medical disregard and malnutrition.

Meantime, a 16-year-old girl was wounded today by Israeli soldiers in the West Bank city of Hebron, medical sources said. The sources said that Worood al-Ajlouni was shot with two bullets in the back. Her condition is said to be stable.

Witnesses said that the girl was shot as she was at her house. Israeli soldiers opened fire at a group of stone throwers in the city, witnesses added.
