Head of the Legal Unit at the Palestinian Prisoners Society (PPS), Jawad Boulos, stated that detainee Omar Abu Shallal, 55, was moved to Ar-Ramla Prison Hospital, after being on hunger-strike for 28 days protesting his illegal administrative detention.

Boulos visited Abu Shallal on Tuesday, and stated that the striking detainee suffered a sharp deterioration in his health condition.
He added that Abu Shallal's cellmates, Bilal Thiab and Tha'er Halahla, have been on hunger-strike since 36 days.

Boulos met Thiab and Halahla at the Prison Hospital in Ar-Ramla, and said that they also suffer bad health conditions, adding that Halahla suffers from sharp stomach ache, severe headache and deteriorating eyesight.

The three hunger-striking detainees sent a message through their lawyer stating that they are determined to continue their hunger strike, similar to the case of detainees Khader Adnan and Hanaa' Shalabi, adding that the International Community must act and pressure "Israel" into halting its violations against the detainees.
