One 30th day of hunger strike: Addameer calls for continued solidarity
As a result of Israel’s cruel policies and practices towards Palestinian political prisoners and detainees, over 1500 political prisoners have declared the beginning of an open hunger strike on 17 April 2017 in order to achieve a list of demands:
The alarmingly deteriorating situation in human rights of Palestinian political prisoners, compounded with widespread and systematic torture and ill-treatment, and lack of accountability and investigations for crimes by occupation forces, underlines the need for continued efforts towards a situation in which Palestinian prisoners are afforded fundamental and inherent human rights, and towards an end to a protracted and brutal occupation. #DignityStrike
