Claim: Gilboa prison guards were assaulted by prisoners

TRUE

THE ANSWER

Female guards at Gilboa alleged sexual assault by Palestinian security prisoners, with supervisors' knowledge. A former prison commander and an intelligence officer were charged with not reporting it.

The trial began in 2024. These are allegations and charges in a court process, not findings against the prisoners.
