[ 01/05/2012 - 01:44 PM ]
GAZA,(PIC)-- Islamic Jihad held the Israeli occupation authorities responsible for the lives of prisoners on hunger strike in its prisons, warning that any deaths between the strikers will mean an end to the Truce.
The movement called, in a statement read by Sheikh Khader Habib during a press conference on Monday, on the international community to act for the release of Bilal Dhiab and Thaer Halahleh to guarantee the truce's continuity, "any truce that does not protect our fighters has no meaning" he said.
The movement confirmed that occupation bears full responsibility for the prisoners' life and will bear the consequences of what will happen after the sharp health deterioration of Bilal Dhiab who was moved to hospital in very serious condition.
The movement stated that what is happening in occupation prisons is a political assassination of all the prisoners, calling on the Palestinian factions to form a united front to protect the prisoners.
