The Prisoners' Information Office reported on Sunday that the health status of the 28-year-old prisoner Jihad Mousa Shariteh, who has been on a hunger strike for 15 days, has deteriorated.

The Prisoners Club also announced the deterioration of Shariteh's health, noting that "he began vomiting blood, and was transferred to the Ofer prison clinic."

Jihad Mousa Shariteh, a resident of Ramallah, was among 30 other administrative detainees who started an open hunger strike 15 days ago, that later rose to 50 after 20 prisoners and detainees joined them on Sunday.

The Israeli occupation forces arrested Shariteh on the eighth of May 2022, which was his second arrest since 2020, and transferred him to administrative detention for a period of six months.

The Palestinian Prisoners Club stated that the administrative detainees will continue their strike and that there are currently no indications or results from all dialogues taking place with the administration of the Israeli occupation prisons.

The Prisoners Club also pointed out that the striking prisoners are awaiting the response of the occupation prison administration to their demands, which is expected to be after the end of the Jewish holidays, confirming that new prisoners will join the strike if the demands are not met.

28 out of the 30 hunger-striking Palestinian prisoners were sentenced to solitary confinement in four cells in "Ofer", while human rights advocate detainee Salah Al-Hammouri faced the same measure in "Hadarim" Prison, as Ghassan Zawahira was also sentenced to solitary confinement in Al-Naqab Prison.

On the 5th of October, Muhjat Al-Quds organization reported that around 900 Palestinian prisoners of the Israeli occupation's "Ofer" prison announced a one-day-long hunger strike starting Thursday in solidarity with their comrades on hunger strike in protest of their administrative detention.

Local sources said the occupation forces surrounded the house of the liberated prisoner Mohammed Abu Zeina in the Jenin Camp, amid heavy confrontations with the Resistance, while helicopters were flying overhead.

It's noteworthy that the occupation forces carry out almost daily arrests in the cities of the West Bank, sparing no Palestinian, even children, women, and the elderly.
