Upheaval at Saharonim prison: 500 Eritreans refuse to enter cells
None
Some 500 Eritreans who are detained at the Saharonim prison in the Negev have refused to enter their cells in protest against their arrests. A prison guard unit managed to restore order in the detention facility.
Additional Israel Prison Service forces have been deployed to the scene for fear of a repeat incident. (Raanan Ben-Zur)
