Administrative detainee Kayed al-Fafsous suspends his hunger strike

RAMALLAH: The Prisoners’ Affairs Authority and the Palestinian Prisoners’ Society announced on Monday that the administrative detainee, Kayed al-Fafsous, decided to suspend his open hunger strike, which lasted for 75 days against his administrative detention.

According to a statement issued by them, the suspension came after a call and letter sent to him by his family, as well as the competent institutions through the lawyer of the Prisoners’ Authority, who was able to visit him today in Ramla Prison after 12 days had passed since the competent institutions’ requests to allow him to visit the prisoner.

The call from his family and institutions came out of great fear that the occupation would assassinate him, in light of the comprehensive aggression launched by the occupation against Palestinian people and fellow prisoners in all prisons who are facing the collective retaliatory measures imposed on them since October 7th.

A court session will be held the day after tomorrow in the Israeli Supreme Court in Jerusalem in order to review the petition submitted by the lawyer of the Prisoners’ Authority.
