Original Social Media Post

"Fourteen-year-old Ayham Al-Salaymah bid an emotional goodbye to his family today as he prepared to surrender to Al-Maskoubiyah (Jerusalem Prison) to serve a one-year sentence. Arrested at just 12 years old alongside his brother and two other children, Ayham was initially placed under house arrest for 14 months before his sentence was converted to prison time in July 2024. Despite his family's appeal, the Israeli Supreme Court upheld the decision, forcing him to enter prison today. Before parting, his father, Nawwaf, offered advice, urging Ayham to stand united with fellow prisoners, share resources, and remain resilient, reminding him that the jailer is the only enemy. Ayham, aware of the harsh prison conditions, shaved his head in solidarity with other detainees, fully embracing his reality as he enters prison under Israeli military law, which allows the imprisonment of Palestinian children as young as 12.
