Rearrested Palestinian Hanah Shalabi on hunger strike

Hanah Shalabi was among more than 1,000 Palestinian prisoners released in October 2011 in a trade for Israeli soldier Gilad Shalit, held by Gaza-based militants for more than five years.

She was re-arrested on February 16 and ordered to be detained under administrative detention without trial for six months

Hanah Shalabi, from the West Bank village of Burqin village near Jenin, spent 30 months in detention before her release last year. Hanah is one of five freed prisoners in the October swap who has since been re-arrested.

UFree network is calling on the international community to break its silence towards the Israeli illegal detention to Palestinians and keeping them under administrative detention without trial or charge.
