RESTRICTION SUMMARY: APAwire CLIENTS ONLY SHOTLIST: APAwire - APAwire CLIENTS ONLY, Ramallah - 17 May 2022. Palestinians take part in a protest in solidarity with prisoners on hunger strikes in Israeli jails, in the West Bank city of Ramallah. 0.1 SOUNDBITE (in Arabic) Muhammad Al-Awawda, father of the prisoner Khalil Al-Awawda. 0.2 SOUNDBITE (in Arabic) Youssef Rayan, the father of the prisoner, Raed Rayan. STORYLINE: More than 450 Palestinian detainees have been refusing to show up for their military court hearings for 137 days in protest of their unfair detention without charge or trial under Israel’s controversial administrative detention policy. The boycott includes hearings for the renewal of administrative detention orders as well as appeal hearings and latter sessions at Israel’s Supreme Court. Palestinian detainees say their action is a continuation of longstanding Palestinian efforts "to put an end to the unjust administrative detention practiced against our people by the occupation forces." Under administrative detention, Israel keeps Palestinians without charge for up to six months, a period which can be extended for an indefinite number of times. Women and minors are also among those detainees. The detention takes place on orders from a military commander and on the basis of what the Israeli regime describes as ‘secret’ evidence. Some prisoners have been held in administrative detention for up to 11 years. Palestinians and human rights groups say the administrative detention violates the right to due process since evidence is withheld from prisoners while they are held for lengthy periods without being charged, tried, or convicted.
