On Wednesday morning, at precisely 6:29 AM, the exact time Hamas launched its deadly attack three years prior, the Israel Prison Service (IPS) initiated a large-scale operational sweep across five high-security detention facilities nationwide. The operation, conducted on the third anniversary of the October 7 massacre, involved extensive searches of cells and wings housing security prisoners. The IPS stated the goal was to reinforce control and governance within the facilities, locate prohibited items, and preemptively thwart any attempts to disrupt order or endanger prison security and staff. The sweep included combatants from the Northern, Central, and Southern districts, alongside elite units such as Matzada, Nachshon, district units, initial response forces, and the Prison Service's special investigative unit. According to the IPS, this proactive measure aligns with the policy of Commissioner Kobi Yaakovy to strengthen governance in prisons throughout the year, with intensified prevention and disruption efforts during periods of heightened security sensitivity. The Prison Service affirmed its continued commitment to maintaining order, governance, and security within detention facilities and neutralizing any threats emanating from them.
