This came in a speech delivered by Hamas spokesman Fawzi Barhoum during a sit-in held outside the headquarters of the Red Cross in Gaza to demand the release of pregnant prisoner Anhar ad-Deek before her due date.

“Our message to the female prisoners, especially ad-Deek and Jaabees, is that we will work strongly to liberate them and all the prisoners,” spokesman Barhoum said.

“The occupation must be pressured to end the suffering of our female prisoners, especially ad-Deek and Jaabees,” the spokesman added.

He denounced the international community for not taking action against the zionist regime’s growing violations against the Palestinian prisoners, stressing the need to urgently move to save prisoner ad-Deek and end her suffering.
