Background
Ofer Prison (Hebrew: ××× ×¢×פר, Kele Ofer), formerly officially known as Incarceration Facility 385 (××ª×§× ××××× 385â), is an Israeli military incarceration facility in the Israeli-occupied West Bank, between Beitunia and Giv'at Ze'ev. It is one of three prison facilities along with Megiddo and Ktzi'ot, the latter two located in Israel and not in the West Bank. Ofer Prison is run by the Israel Prison Service and like the other two facilities, used to be operated by the Israel Defense Forces' Military Police Corps. When under IDF control, it was capable of holding up to 800 prisoners, both tried and those under administrative detention. NGOs have stated that the imprisonment of children is one of the human rights abuses taking place in Ofer Prison.
