NABLUS, GAZA (PIC) — Tadamun International for Human Rights said that the Israeli occupation Prison Service transferred deliberately the isolated hunger striking prisoners in Ashkelon solitary confinement from one cell to another several times a day in order to tire them physically as well as psychologically.

According to Ahmed Betawi the researcher at the Solidarity Foundation, Ashkelon’s prison administration breaks into cells of isolated striking prisoners daily at late hours and transfers them to other cells without allowing them to take their belongings, in addition to many other provocative methods against them.

Betawi also revealed that representatives of the Zionist prison administration held meetings with isolated striking prisoners each alone to negotiate the end of the strike which was rejected by the prisoners who maintained that negotiations can only be held with the prisoner Mahmoud Issa, the representative of the isolated prisoners in Ashkelon.

The isolated prisoner Ibrahim Hamid said that even though the prisoners’ battle against the occupation practices is hard, the captives’ determination and will are strong. He demanded the Palestinian people, the leaders in 1948-occupied territories and all those in solidarity with the prisoners’ issue, especially the students’ movement, to join all their efforts and participate in all events and activities in support of the prisoners as the massive marches.

Meanwhile, the Minister of Prisoners, Dr. Attallah Abu Subah, called during a press conference on Wednesday for a massive popular Intifada in response to the occupation’s escalating violations against the prisoners. He called all the resistance factions to capture occupation soldiers and resist the enemy, who is practicing murder, terrorism and abuse.

He pointed out that thousands of prisoners have been striking for the 16th day and that some others, such as Bilal Diab and Thaer Halahla have been striking for more than 65 days.

Therefore, he denounced the world and Security Council’s suspicious silence and stressed that all human rights organizations and all Arab peoples must intervene urgently.
