The Israeli Prison Service (IPS) transferred the imprisoned professor Issam al-Ashqar 57 to Ramla prison hospital after his serious health deterioration.
Family sources told the PIC reporter that al-Ashqar’s difficult health condition requires constant medical care.
Al-Ashqar suffers difficult health complications including high blood pressure and kidney failure the family added.
The family pointed out that he could have a heart attack at any moment especially in light of the unbearable detention conditions.
Al-Ashqar was arrested from his house in Nablus on Nov. 24 2016 and kept in administrative detention without charge or trial.
He was first arrested in 2013 where all Israeli prisons refused to receive him due to his difficult health situation forcing his release after three days.
