FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda “Israel has begun to violate the deal it signed with the [Palestinian] prisoners, and within ten days after announcing the end of the strike, Israel renewed administrative detention orders for approximately 30 prisoners,” Issa Qaraqaa said in a press conference in the West Bank city of Ramallah on Sunday.
“There are still provocations in the prisons, and the prisoners are threatening to resume the strike if the situation remains as it is.”
More than 1,500 Palestinian prisoners began an open-ended hunger strike on April 17 in protest against the administrative detention and solitary confinement exercised by the Tel Aviv regime, demanding the reinstatement of family visits from the Gaza Strip.
On May 14, the prisoners ended their strike after Israel agreed to an Egyptian proposal, which called on Israeli authorities to move the Palestinian inmates from solitary confinement to regular cells.
The Tel Aviv regime also conditionally agreed not to renew the administrative detentions unless new evidence emerges, according to the Egyptian-mediated deal.
However, Qaraqaa said Palestinian prisoner Mahmud Sarsak, who comes from Gaza, restarted his hunger strike on May 15.
“Israel wants to punish the prisoners for striking with these renewed orders,” Qaraqaa said.
“So far, we do not know if Israel will even allow families of prisoners from Gaza to visit their imprisoned relatives.”
The administrative detention, often implemented by the Israeli regime against the Palestinian population, is a sort of imprisonment without trial or charge, allowing regime forces to make detentions for up to six months. The detention order can be renewed for indefinite periods of time.
