The Israeli occupation forces on Monday allowed scores of prisoners' families from the Gaza Strip to visit their kin in the Israeli Remon jail in the Negev desert.
Spokesperson for the International Committee of the Red Cross said 79 Gazans left via Beit Hanoun crossing, in the northern Gaza Strip, to visit 43 prisoners held in the Israeli desert jail.
Israel has resumed the prisoners' visits after it had prevented them for almost six consecutive years after an agreement reached to this effect between the prisoners movement and the Israeli imprisonment administration under Egyptian mediation in the wake of a 28-day hunger strike by prisoners.
There are around 6,500 Palestinian detainees in Israeli jails, including 400 from the Gaza Strip.
