Palestinian Prisoners to Launch Open-Ended Mass Hunger Strike - Tasnim News Agency

Palestinians held in Israeli prisons plan to launch an open-ended mass hunger strike in protest against the Israeli regime’s repressive measures.
This is according to the rights group Palestinian Prisoners' Club (PPC). Quoting the Supreme National Emergency Committee for Palestinian Prisoners, it said in a statement on Saturday that several inmates will begin a hunger strike on Monday and Wednesday, before launching a mass strike in all Israeli jails, the Palestinian Information Center reported.

As an initial step, the prisoners will refuse to go out for security inspections during this week, the statement said, adding that the inmates seek to force Israeli prison authorities to halt their repressive measures and reverse all the unjust decisions they have taken in recent months.
