Palestinian hunger striking prisoner Awawda says he will keep steadfast until he regains his freedom
Palestinian Hunger striking prisoner in the Israeli occupation jails Khalil Awawda has stressed that he will continue with his battle until he regains his freedom.
Awawda has been on a hunger strike for 170 days.
In a video message from his hospital bed, where he is kept following a serious deterioration in his health due to the long and unprecedented period of his hunger strike, Awawda called on the freedom-loving people of the world to stand by his demand for freedom from captivity in the Israeli jails, according to Palestinian media outlets.
“We are a people whose cause is just, and it will remain just, and we will continue to stand against administrative detention, even if the flesh and skin melt, and the bone vanishes, even if the souls are gone. Be confident that we have rights and that our cause is just, no matter how high the price,” he said, WAFA News Agency reported on Monday.
