Four Palestinian prisoners have been on open-ended hunger strike for several days in protest at their detention administratively with no trial or indictment.

The hunger strikers are Husam al-Razza and Mohamed Tabanja and they have been on hunger strike for about 38 days and 30 days respectively while Hasan al-Aweiwi and Odeh al-Haroub started their hunger strike together on April 2 2019.

According to the Palestinian Prisoner Society these four hunger strikers are being exposed to suppressive measures by the Israeli prison service including solitary confinement and repeated transfers.

The hunger strikers are also deprived of seeing their families and hardly can see their lawyers.
