Palestinian prisoner Alaa Al-Aaraj ends 103 days of hunger strike

18-11-2021

Alaa al-Aaraj, a Palestinian prisoner who has been on hunger strike for 103 days in protest of his administrative detention by Israel, ended his hunger strike today after reaching out an agreement with the Israeli occupation authorities ending his detention without charge or trial. Jawad Boulus, an attorney working with the Palestinian Prisoner’s Society (PPS), said Al-Aaraj decided to break his hunger strike after the Israeli military court of Salem, northwest of Jenin in the occupied West Bank, issued a verdict cancelling his current administrative detention order, under which he has been in prison without charge or trial. Nabila Al-Aaraj, Alaa’s mother, also confirmed the court’s verdict and the reports about her son breaking his hunger strike.
