NABLUS (PIC)– The Israeli occupation authority (IOA) transferred detained Palestinian academician Dr. Mohammed Salibi from Ofer jail to hospital after his health condition declined.
Salibi 63 suffers a lot of chronic illnesses such as diabetes hypertension and pain in the neck the Tadamun foundation for human rights said adding that he had undergone a catheterization operation back in 2009.
The foundation said in a statement on Tuesday that Salibi’s health condition was not exactly known adding that he was supposed to undergo a similar operation in the heart at the start of 2012 but his detention in mid January averted the surgery.
