30 Palestinian detainees in occupation jails will start open-ended hunger strike tomorrow

On Sep 24, 2022

30 Palestinian administrative detainees, held in the Israeli occupation jails, will go on an open-ended hunger strike tomorrow, Sunday, in protest against their detention without charge or trial.

The Prisoners and Ex-Prisoners Affairs Commission clarified in a statement on Saturday that the hunger strike comes as the Isareli occupation has escalated its administrative detention policy against the Palestinians, including children, women, elderly, sick persons and ex-prisoners.

Around 5,000 Palestinian prisoners continue to be held in Isareli jails amid very difficult detention conditions. 600 of these prisoners are sick and they need urgent medical treatment.

According to WAFA News Agency, the administrative detainees sent a message a few days ago in which they asserted that confronting the administrative detention continues and that the practices of the Israeli prison authority are no longer governed by what it called “security obsession” as an actual driver of the occupation, rather, they are acts of revenge.
