Far-right Israeli security minister Itamar Ben-Gvir has aggressively confronted Marwan Barghouti, a prominent Palestinian political leader imprisoned since 2002, in his solitary confinement cell at Ganot prison in a highly condemnable move.
Barghouti is widely regarded as a unifying figure within the Palestinian community. He was visibly distressed during the encounter monitored by guards and cameras, Drop Site reported on Thursday.
During the confrontation, Ben Gvir blatantly said to Barghouti: “Whoever messes with the people of Israel, whoever murders our children, whoever murders our women, we will obliterate them. You will not defeat us.”
