Solidarity events have been ongoing in Jenin’s southern town of Jaba’ for 25 days running in support of the Palestinian hunger-striker Ammar al-Hamour held in an Israeli jail.
According to a PIC news reporter Palestinian protesters rallied outside a sit-in tent pitched at the Jaba’ crossroads lifting al-Hamour’s photos.
The sit-inners spoke out against the Israeli policy of administrative detention holding Palestinian citizens in custody without charge or trial.
The popular committee to support al-Hamour said the solidarity events are a proof that the prisoners are always present in Palestinians’ hearts and souls.
Jaba’ Mayor also urged all Palestinians to rally round the Palestinian detainees in Israeli jails.
A native of Jaba’ town al-Hamour has been on an open-ended hunger striker for 25 days running in protest at being held administratively in Israeli lock-ups.
