2 Palestinian Prisoners on Hunger Strike in Israeli Jails Go Through Serious Conditions
News - Middle East: The health condition of two Palestinian prisoners in Israeli jails is critical after months of hunger strike in protest against the Tel Aviv regime’s administrative detention.
Khalil Awawdeh, 40, from the occupied West Bank city of al-Khalil, has been on hunger strike for 102 days, Palestine’s official Wafa news agency reported on Sunday.
He is reported to be suffering from headaches, fatigue, blurry vision, joint pain, irregular heartbeat, frequent vomiting and significant loss of weight.
The Palestinian Prisoners’ Club says Awawda was transferred from Ramle prison to an Israeli hospital after his health deteriorated this week.
Qaddoura Fares, the Club’s head, recently said the Israel Prison Service (IPS) would move Palestinian prisoners to hospitals on their 50th day of hunger strike, but in the case of Awawda, the IPS refused to do so and told him he would only be hospitalized if he fell into a coma.
Awawda, a father of four daughters, has been arrested five times since 2005 for political activism, and has been placed in administrative detention three times.
