  Four Administrative Detainees Still on Hunger Strike

October 28, 2019
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Four Palestinian administrative detainees in Israel remain on hunger 
strike against their indefinite incarceration without charge or trial, 
including one who has been consistently refusing food for 97 days in a 
row, the Palestinian Prisoners Commission said, today.

Ismail Ali, from Abu Dis, to the east of Jerusalem, has been on hunger 
strike for 97 days, today. The Israeli High Court, yesterday, rejected 
his petition for release. The commission said that Ali’s health has 
seriously deteriorated, due to his long fast.

Another administrative detainee, Hiba Labadi, a Jordanian citizen who 
has been on hunger strike for 35 days, also in protest against her 
administrative detention without charge or trial, was transferred to 
hospital

following a deterioration in her health, said the Prisoners Commission.

Labadi was arrested upon her arrival at Allenby Bridge crossing with 
Jordan, on her way into the West Bank, and has been on hunger strike 
since then, protesting her torture and detention.

A third hunger striker, Ahmad Zahran, who has been fasting for 37 days, 
has had his administrative detention order extended by four more months, 
two days before his current one was supposed to end.

The fourth is Musab Hindi, who has been on hunger strike for 35 days, 
also demanding his release from administrative detention.

Two other administrative detainees, Tareq Qadan and Ahmad Ghannam, have 
recently ended their long hunger strike after they were guaranteed that 
their administrative detention would not be renewed past the present 
period, WAFA correspondence reports.
