Days of Palestine – Ramallah
Two Palestinian prisoners, Khalil Awawdeh and Ra’ed Rayan entered day 94 and day 59 respectively of the hunger strike they staged in protest at their detention administratively, with no indictment or trial.
Recently, an Israeli court rejected a new petition for the release of prisoner Awawdeh, who suffers from serious health issues as a result of his prolonged hunger strike.
A few days ago, Awawdeh was taken to the Ramla prison infirmary, although the Israeli high court of justice had ordered his immediate transfer to a hospital due to his critical health condition.
Awawdeh suffers from a persistent headache, joint pains, emaciation, extreme fatigue, irregular heartbeats and breathing, and frequent vomiting of blood.
As for prisoner Ra’ed Rayan, he staged his hunger strike to protest an Israeli decision to extend his administrative detention.
Rayan, who is being held in Ofer jail, was kidnaped from his home in Beit Duqqu village, northwest of Occupied Jerusalem, on December 3, 2021, and soon later an Israeli military court ordered his detention administratively for six months.
He also suffers from multiple serious health problems as a result of his hunger strike.
