The Handala Center for Prisoners and Ex-Prisoners confirmed on Monday that the Israeli occupation prisons authority has yielded to the pressures of the prisoners and ended the solitary confinement of leaders Ahmed Saadat, Ahed Abu Gholami, and Walid Hanatsheh.

In a statement, the Center announced that as a result of yielding to the pressure exerted by the prisoners of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) in Israeli occupation prisons over the past few days and their threat to wage a wide battle inside the prisons, the Israeli occupation prisons authority proceeded to end the isolation of PFLP Secretary-General Ahmed Saadat and return him to "Ramon" prison.

The occupation prisons authority also ended the isolation of leaders Ahed Abu Gholami and Walid Hanatsheh and transferred them to the "Nafha" and Gilboa prisons respectively.

The Center stressed that pressure is underway to stop the Israeli occupation attack against PFLP prisoners and end the Israeli campaign of transferring prisoners.

Earlier, the Palestinian Ministry of Detainees and Ex-Detainees warned the Israeli occupation prison administration against pursuing its decision to continue imposing solitary confinement for the second week in a row against prisoner Saadat and his fellow leaders.

Israeli media claimed that Saadat was transferred from the ordinary section of "Rimon" prison to solitary confinement, after conducting an interview for the Algerian newspaper Al-Khabar.

The occupation prisons authority claimed Saadat did not obtain permission to conduct the interview, adding that the PFLP chief touched on the conditions of the prisoners in Israeli occupation prisons.

He also talked about the conditions in occupied Palestinian territories and pointed to a third Intifada that would be more dangerous to the Israeli occupation than its predecessors.

It is noteworthy that prisoner Saadat was kidnapped in 2006 from the US- and UK-monitored Areeha prison after it was demolished by Israeli occupation forces and was sentenced to 30 years in Israeli prisons, after being accused of organizing the assassination of Israeli Minister Rehavam Ze'evi.
