Fears for Palestinian hunger strikers protesting the imprisonment

Although the treatment of the Palestinian prisoners by the Israeli forces has been a hotly debated topic through the last months, the situation is expected to escalate after the health of six Palestinians in hunger strike protesting against their administrative detention, deteriorated. 

According to some sources, this Friday is planned a collective hunger strike among the Palestinian prisoners against the measures implemented in the West Bank by the Israeli authorities after last week jailbreak. More than 1300 inmates are expected to participate in the hunger strike protest.
