The Palestinian Prisoner Center for Studies (PPCS) has warned that the health conditions of hunger-striking prisoners Ahmed Ghannam from al-Khalil and Hudaifa Halbiya from Jerusalem have seriously worsened.
In a statement released on Saturday PPCS said the health conditions of prisoners Ghannam and Halbiya reached disturbing and serious stages.
According to PPCS Ghannam has been on hunger strike for 49 days in protest at his administrative detention and was transferred recently to the Ramla Hospital after he suffered health complications.
Ghannam has a weak immune system and he already survived a blood cancer.
As for prisoner Halbiya he has entered the third month of his hunger strike in protest at his detention administratively.
He was transferred about two week ago to Barzilai Hospital after his health badly deteriorated as a result of his prolonged strike.
