Solidarity Appeal with Palestinian Prisoners and detainees on hunger strike in Israeli prisons
To all humanists in the world…
To all Human Rights and human dignity defenders…
To all who oppose Israel crimes and terrorism …
Palestinian Prisoners and detainees are on an open hunger strike for the sixteenth day respectively demanding of their basic rights, Israeli brutal Occupation has detained their freedom as a punishment for their legitimate struggle against occupying their homeland, it even deprive them form their basic needs, and practice systematic repressive policies against them, which violates the International Law principles.
Israeli prison authorities ramping up punitive procedures in an attempt to pressure prisoners to break their strikes, hunger-striking prisoners has continuously been transferring into solitary confinement, Israel Prison Service has banned lawyers to visit the prisoners, in addition to unannounced inspections and searching the prisoner’s rooms, also they ban prisoners to have salt and taking shower, which resulted in a serious deterioration of hunger-striking prisoners health, including the prisoner Marwan Al-Barghouthi, which threaten his life, especially it’s the sixteenth day of their open hunger strike, without any response from Israeli Prisons Service to their demands.
The continuous denial of the Israeli occupation to respond to the Hunger Strikers demands; is a renewed episode of their arrogance, which does not assess any weight to the International conventions and declarations. Palestinian Prisoners and detainees persist to continue their hunger strike, as a recognized right by all Legislations and International conventions, as a legal mean to face the inhuman conditions practiced by the Israeli jailer. These inhumane conditions, which contradict all declarations and agreements undertaken by the International Community represented as constant principles, rules and procedures governing relations between the detainees and prisoners on the one hand, and the military occupation on the other.
To all humanists in the world….
Let’s stand in solidarity with Palestinian prisoners and detainees demands in Israeli prisons, they are in real danger, Let us call upon our governments and the world’s governments to exert pressure on Israel in order to release Palestinian prisoners unconditionally, and to stop the racist practices against them and their families and Palestinian civilians in the Palestinian Occupied Territories.
