Mideast Israel Palestinians

The text reads “Freedom for the national leader Ibrahim Abu Hajal, member of the Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine (DFLP)”. According to an Israeli Prison Service statement released Sunday, over 200 Palestinian prisoners are currently hunger striking in Israeli prisons, in protest against the worsening of their prison conditions. Palestinian officials said around 2,000 prisoners have joined the strike, demanding better conditions behind bars. (AP Photo/Bernat Armangue)
