Palestinian on hunger strike for 37th day over arbitrary detention

Monday 8-October-2018

The health condition of Palestinian prisoner Khader Adnan has taken a serious turn for the worse as his open-ended hunger strike has been ongoing for 37 consecutive days to protest his arbitrary detention in Israeli lock-ups.

Khader Adnan’s wife has expressed concerns over his exacerbated health status and the preplanned medical neglect pursued by the Israeli prison authorities against her isolated husband.

Muhjat al-Quds Foundation said prisoner Khader Adnan has declared his an open-ended hunger strike some 37 days ago in response to being held arbitrarily in Israeli dungeons.

Muhjat al-Quds railed against Israel’s torture tactics including bans of visits by family members and attorneys perpetrated against the hunger striker in contravention of international laws and treaties.

Khader Adnan from the northern occupied West Bank province of Jenin was kidnapped by the Israeli forces on December 11 2017 over allegations of anti-occupation incitement.
