RAMALLAH, Saturday, December 18, 2021 (WAFA) –
Palestinian administrative detainee in Israel, Hisham Abu Hawwash, 40, has been
on hunger strike for the 124th day in a row demanding this freedom,
according to the Prisoners Commission.
It said that Abu Hawwash, from the town of Dura
in the south of the West Bank, is currently held at Ramle prison clinic despite
his deteriorating health condition due to his long fast.
Abu Hawwash, married and a father of five children,
was detained on October 27, 2020, for his political activities and immediately served
with an administrative detention order for six months that has been renewed ever
since.
Palestinians serving time in administrative detention
in Israel without charge or trial and based on classified evidence often revert
to hunger strike to regain their freedom.
