130 Days Hunger Stricken Palestinian Prisoner Unable to Move

A Palestinian Prisoners' Affairs Authority warned of the critical health situation of prisoner Hisham Abu Hawash, a hunger striker in Israeli prisons, refusing his administrative detention.

In a statement issued by the prisoner’s society, counsel Jazad Paul reported that, 130 days-stricken prisoner, Abu Hawash had lost mobility and had difficulty speaking.

Paul, who was able to visit the captive Abu Hawash, Thursday, at the Ramla prison, explained that he had been transferred by the prison department in the morning to the Israeli hospital of Asaf Hruveh and sent back to prison, despite the urgent need for active follow-up and health surveillance, as reported by WAFA.

Despite Abu Hawash's extremely precarious health situation, the occupation prison administration refused to transfer him permanently to a civilian hospital, and even tried to impose this as part of the current switch on the situation of the strikers.
