Palestinian Journalist Loses Prosthetic Eye While Incarcerated in Israeli Prison

Palestinian Journalist Experiences Complications While Detained in Israeli Prison

A Palestinian journalist, Muath Amarne, has reported complications while in detention in Israel. According to Amarne, an infection led to the loss of his prosthetic eye.

In 2019, Amarne lost his left eye after being struck by an Israeli rubber bullet. He was subsequently detained for over seven months before being released from prison.

Amarne’s recent detention has resulted in a new health issue. The journalist stated that he experienced complications due to an infection while in custody. As a result, he is now in urgent need of surgical attention.

Details regarding Amarne’s current situation are limited. However, it is reported that the Palestinian journalist was being held in Israeli prison when the incident occurred.
