Israel has banned the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) for visiting Palestinian prisoners detained under a law targeting “illegal combatants”, Defence Minister Israel Katz said on Wednesday.
“The opinions presented to me leave no doubt that Red Cross visits to terrorists in prisons would seriously harm the state’s security. The safety of the state and our citizens comes first,” Katz said, according to a statement from his office.
