Ben-Gvir wrote to the Police Commissioner and admitted "It is true that this is an underground wing, the conditions in which are not among the best, but the conditions..comply...with the law."

National Security Minister Itamir Ben-Gvir on Thursday ordered the utilization of an underground prison wing, which has been out of use for an extended period, for the housing of Nukhba prisoners.

Hamas's Nukhba forces are considered to be an elite naval force of the  Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Brigades in the Hamas terrorist organization.

Ben-Gvir insisted that Commissioner of Prison Services Katy Perry imprison the terrorists detained in the underground wing where the conditions would likely be poor.

Earlier this week, the Director General of the Ministry of National Security, Dr. Elazar Ben Hash, visited the prison in question together with members of the police and inspected the wing to decide if the accommodations would appropriately house the terrorists.

Ben-Gvir later wrote to Police Commissioner Kobi Shabtai and admitted, "It is true that this is an underground wing, the conditions of which are not among the best, but the conditions of incarceration there comply with the provisions of the law and the relevant regulations, and it has housed prisoners in the past.

"Given this, I would ask you to act for the use of the wing… for the benefit of the imprisonment of the Nukhba detainees or other mass-murdering terrorists who are a symbol of Hamas and its supporters."
