The PA authority on prisoners’ affairs has warned that life of two Palestinian prisoners in Israeli jails was gravely deteriorating as a result of their hunger strike.
Captives Huthaifah Halabiya 48 and Jafar Izz Al-Dien 28 were on hunger strike for 6 days and 23 days respectively in protest at their arrest without trial.
“Izz Al-Dein was suffering of severe headache and loss of weight while Halabiya was suffering of body pain and blood cancer among other sicknesses” said Jawad Bolus the director-general of the authority’s legal affairs department.
Both captives were placed in solitary confinement and denied fair treatment by the Israeli prison authority.
On the other hand Bolus paid a visit to other Palestinian prisoners in Israeli jails to check on their conditions and to find ways and means to improve the captives’ conditions in all Israeli jails.
