Dozens of protesters demonstrated outside the Hadarim prison on Saturday night demanding the release of Itai Zar, the owner of Havat Gilad. Zar was arrested last after a confrontation with security forces who tried to dismantle electricity and other infrastructure at the site.

Organizers of the demonstration said that Zar was punished by jailers after a similar demonstration last Saturday night. Several hours after that protest, which was attended by some 100 people, Zar was put into solitary confinement for two days.
