FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda
Diab and Halahla are specifically protesting their jailing by Israeli
authorities without charge under a procedure known as administrative
detention.
The broader hunger strike by around 1,550 Palestinian prisoners is intended to
pressure Israeli prison authorities to end the use of solitary confinement
and ease a wide range of restrictions, including on family visits and
prisoner education.
Hamas Deputy Chief Mussa Abu Marzuk said that following Egyptian intervention
on the issue it had been close to resolution but talks stalled “two
days ago.”
Israeli and Palestinian demonstrators gathered on Sunday outside the West Bank
settlement of Maaleh Adumim in a show of solidarity with he prisoners.
Israeli police said two of the Palestinians were arrested for blocking a
public road.
The hunger strike has attracted widespread support throughout the Palestinian
territories, and Mr Abbas said he had raised the issue in discussions with
Israeli negotiator Yitzhak Molcho and US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.
