Two laborers from the Gaza Strip died while being held at military bases in the West Bank that had been housing thousands of Gazans whose Israeli work permits were revoked when the war in Gaza began last month. While the deaths of prisoners and detainees are usually reported, the army did not issue a notice of the deaths in the three weeks that have elapsed since the death of one of them at the Anatot base.
