Prisoners in Israel receive vaccine - including Palestinians. Also, PA coordinating with Israel to bring in the Russian vaccine.



Rotter reports that the vaccination program for Israeli prisoners has finished, only three days after it started.

73% of prisoners chose to receive the vaccine. I don't know what percentage of the Arab prisoners chose to.

22 female terrorists in the Damon prison received the vaccines, and 14 refused. Palestinian media also listed vaccines distributed to several other prisons.

The entire plan required cooperation of the Israel Prison Service, Magen Dovid Adom, the Ministry of Health and the Ministry of Public Health.

Meanwhile, Israel is coordinating with the Palestinian Authority to import 5000 of the Russian Sputnik-V vaccine doses next week, and 100,000 more in the middle of February. Those vaccines will be brought on Russian planes landing in Israel. 

 Also, Israel coordinated the delivery of hundreds of vaccines to Gaza tonight.

This is all exactly in line with what the Geneva Conventions require for lands under occupation, even though Israel does not accept that definition.

All the newspaper and NGOs and members of Congress that say otherwise are lying. And they know it.
