RESTRICTION SUMMARY: APAwire CLIENTS ONLY SHOTLIST: APAwire - APAwire CLIENTS ONLY, Nablus - 02 August 2022. Palestinians take part in a protest in solidarity with prisoners in Israeli jails, in the West Bank city of Nablus. 0.1 SOUNDBITE (in Arabic) Thaer Hanani, member of the National Committee to Support Prisoners in Nablus. STORYLINE: Palestinian detainee Khalil Awawdeh, 40, has been on hunger strike for 23 days in protest of his prolonged administrative detention without charge or trial by the Israeli occupation authorities. Awawdeh, from the town of Idna in the southern West Bank district of Hebron, broke a 111-day fast two weeks ago after being reassured by Israeli prison authorities that his administrative detention would not be renewed, but he resumed the hunger strike a week later after the occupation authorities reneged on their promise not to end his unfair detention order. Awawdeh, a father of four, has been in jails since 27 December 2021, and has been placed in administrative detention, without charge or trial, ever since. Israel’s widely condemned policy of administrative detention allows the detention of Palestinians without charge or trial for renewable intervals usually ranging between three and six months based on undisclosed evidence that even a detainee’s lawyer is barred from viewing. Currently, Israel is holding over 680 Palestinians in administrative detention, deemed illegal by international law, most of them former prisoners who spent years in prison for their resistance of the Israeli occupation. Amnesty International, has described Israel's administrative detention policy as a “cruel, unjust practice which helps maintain Israel’s system of apartheid against Palestinians.” Footage by APAwire
