APAIMages - APAIMages CLIENTS ONLY, Al-Bireh- 16 June 2021. Palestinians take part in a protest to show solidarity with prisoners on Israeli Jails, in front of the headquarters of Red cross office, in the West Bank city of Al-Bireh.
STORYLINE
Seven Palestinian prisoners in the Israeli prisons are currently on open-ended hunger strike against administration detention, according to the Palestinian Prisoner’s Society (PPS).
The PPS said in a statement today that the number of prisoners on hunger strike is rising, rejecting the administrative detention policy which the Israeli authorities have recently escalated.
Last month, the Israeli intelligence issued 200 administrative detention orders, without a charge or trial, which is the highest percentage compared to previous months, as the majority of these orders are against new detainees, noting that a number of prisoners, since the beginning of this year, have individually carried out strikes against the administrative detention policy.
