Palestinian prisoners win the battle of empty stomachs

GAZA, (PIC)-- Palestinian prisoners have finally won their battle of empty stomachs against the Israeli suppressive jailors and won back normal rights of prisoners after 28 days of hunger strike.

Political bureau member of Hamas Saleh Al-Aruri has said that the higher committee of the hunger strike had signed an agreement with the Israeli prison service (IPS) by which the hunger strikers would end their strike in return for meeting all their demands.

He told the PIC on Monday that the IPS would end the solitary confinement of Palestinian prisoners within 72 hours.

Aruri added that the agreement, reached with Egyptian mediation, also stipulates releasing all administrative detainees by end of their administrative custody or indicting them.

The agreement also stipulated allowing relatives of Gaza prisoners to visit them and ending the so-called Shalit law and improving incarceration conditions, the Hamas leader said.
