The Palestinian Center for Defense of Freedoms and Civil Rights "Huriyyat" has condemned the decision of the Commander of Central Region of Israeli Occupation Army Gadi Shamni on setting up special military tribunals for Palestinian children detained in Israeli prisons. In a statement issued here today, the Center said it considered this decision as a flagrant violation of the international humanitarian law particularly international conventions on the rights of children, calling for an international movement to abort this decision. It noted that more than 400 Palestinian children have been subjected to the worst forms of torture in Israeli prisons.
