Archivist Notes

Full Name: Marwan Fathi Hussein Harzallah | مروان فتحي حسين حرز الله

At 21:05, the wounded prisoner Marwan Fathi Hussein Harzallah, 54, a man with special needs and a resident of Ain Beit al-Ma’ camp in the city of Nablus, was killed in Megiddo Prison, where he had been detained since 08 January 2026. With the exception of his injury and amputation of his foot, he was in good health before his arrest. His body remains held by the IDF preventing family to investigate the cause of his death and to mourn and bury him.

He was arrested on January 8, 2026, at his home in the town of Zawata, Nablus, northern occupied West Bank, and held in administrative detention, without being sentenced. He had remained in detention on what the Israeli authorities described as charges of “incitement.” He had previously been wounded by occupation gunfire in 1995, which resulted in the amputation of one of his feet.

His eldest son, Tahrir Harzallah, has also been held under administrative detention in Israeli prison for about a year in Nafha Desert Prison. And his uncle Samih Aliwi was also killed in Israeli prisons as a result of medical negligence two years ago.

According to Taqwa Harzallah, his daughter: "It is true that my father was suffering from pain as a result of complications from his previous injury, but reaching the point of his martyrdom was not expected at all". She points out that "the occupation soldiers refused to allow my father to carry his prosthetic foot with him when he was arrested", adding that "the family was busy following up on the case of my brother Tahrir, who has been administratively detained for a year, and his detention was extended for an additional six months a few days ago. In the midst of this preoccupation, my father was arrested at dawn on January 8, and our pain doubled".

Before his detention, he worked for the General Authority for Radio and Television (Palestine TV) in Nablus, carrying out his media work with professionalism and commitment until he was taken into captivity.
