Muslim prisoners have been filmed rapping about the Israel-Hamas war from their cells using banned mobile phones, GB News can reveal.

Flipping between English and Arabic, the two rappers express their anger at “lies” in the press about the conflict, adding “we need to do anything to stop this war.”
Both men are seen rapping in green Nike and Adidas tracksuits.
The first rapper said the press do not care about people in the war.
He goes on to say: “What would you do if your baby had no water no food?
“I do not condemn Hamas or terrorism … we need to do everything we can to stop this war.”
He introduces the second rapper and urges his fellow rapper to “tell them how you’re feeling.”
The second rapper responds “Wa-Alaikum-Salaam” before going on to chant “f**k Israel” while making notorious gun gestures, often seen in drill rap music videos.
The prisoner rapper also complains about “Islamophobia” and calls on Prime Minister Rishi Sunak to resign.
He refers to seeing reports from the war on TV news, possibly in prison, while rapping about the “West’s government’s Islamophobia these days is too big to hide.”
His face is covered with a white balaclava with Nike branding.
A third man is briefly seen at the start of the TikTok video, with a black bandana covering his mouth.
A Prison Service spokesperson said: “Mobile phones are not tolerated in prison and those found with them face extra time behind bars.”
