Prison authorities have moved security detainee Eli Feldstein to a supervised observation cell after guards discovered what appeared to be a noose in his cell in a southern Israeli prison, according to multiple sources.
The Israel Prison Service (IPS) confirmed that "security-related findings" in a detainee's cell prompted an immediate transfer to suicide watch, following the prison commissioner's protocols. The IPS statement cited privacy concerns in withholding specific details.
Journalist Yinon Magal first reported the discovery of the apparent noose in Feldstein's cell. "He has been transferred to a monitored cell under supervision," Magal wrote.
