Yes. Known in Egypt as Abu Zaabal and Tora, 500 of Egypt’s Jewish men including the Chief Rabbi of the community were forced to live in these prison camps during a three year period following Egypt’s 1967 Six-Day War with Israel. Internees were all Egyptian nationals who suffered great humiliation and a lack of sanitation at the hands of the guards as punishment for no crime but being Jewish.
