Israel
Practice Relating to Rule 127. Respect for Convictions and Religious Practices of Persons Deprived of Their Liberty
Israel’s Manual on the Laws of War (1998) provides that during their captivity, “the detaining State must allow the prisoners freedom of religion, enable them to take part in religious ceremonies and set aside a place for conducting these ceremonies”.
Israel’s Manual on the Rules of Warfare (2006) states:
The imprisoning country is required to permit prisoners of war freedom of religion as well as permitting them to participate in religious ceremonies and set aside a place of worship for them.
The Manual on the Rules of Warfare (2006) is a second edition of the Manual on the Laws of War (1998).
