A 29-year-old Palestinian man was released from an Israeli prison on Thursday after held over a month.

The man named, Badr Dahlan, was in a state of shock and bears signs of torture on his limbs. Badr was arrested in Gaza by the Israeli forces.

Badr has been receiving treatment and care at Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital in Gaza.

A medical staff said that it is evident that patient is traumatised. This will have a lasting effect on his health.

Badr appeared disoriented and had difficulty speaking and explaining things.

On Thursday, Israeli authorities freed 33 Palestinians who had been detained during the past months by Israeli forces in different areas of the enclave.

The freed detainees were admitted into Al-Aqsa Hospital in Deir Al-Balah in the central Gaza Strip after they complained of torture and mistreatment by Israeli jailers.

Israel denies mistreatment of Palestinian detainees. Palestinian and international human rights groups have criticised what they say is Israel's ill-treatment of Gaza detainees and repeatedly demanded it disclose their whereabouts and information about their well-being.

Human rights groups said that Israel has detained over 4,000 people from the Gaza Strip, including women, and children.
