REUTERS- Amir Cohen                      According to sources,Israel's high court yesterday monday outlawed a detention center where African migrants are held without trial and ordered 2,000 inmates to be released over the next three months.Th ruling struck down a measure passed by Israel's parliament in December to indefinitely incarcerate migrants,most of them from Sudan and Eritrea,in a measure criticized by human rights groups as an attempt to force migrants to leave.Israeli leaders have denounced the migrants they refer to as infiltrators as harmful to Israel and largely stopped their entry by fortifying a fence along the Egyptian border in 2012,later offering financial incentives to those agreeing to leave and detaining thousands.The detention center called a Holot opened a year ago in the Southern Negev desert.One more photo below.                            An African migrant prepares food outside Holot open detention centre in Israel's southern Negev desert September 22, 2014.
