The Palestinian Ministry of Detainees and Ex-Detainees says the Israeli decision is tantamount to a death sentence against the hunger-striking prisoner.

The Israeli occupation Supreme Court in occupied al-Quds refused on Monday to consider the petition submitted to appeal the arbitrary administrative detention decision against Palestinian prisoner Kayed al-Fasfous and decided to return his case to the "Ofer" Military Court.

In a statement, the Palestinian Ministry of Detainees and Ex-Detainees indicated that the Israeli decision is tantamount to a death sentence against prisoner al-Fasfous and a continuation of procrastination to gain more time in dealing with the demands of the hunger-striking prisoners.

The Ministry considered the court’s decision a complete collusion with the Israeli occupation intelligence service and a clear response to its dictates, holding the occupation and its prison administration fully responsible for the repercussions of this decision.

Al-Fafsous (34 years old), from the town of Dura, south of occupied al-Khalil, has entered the 61st consecutive day of his open hunger strike in rejection of the crime of his arbitrary administrative detention.

A couple of days ago, the Palestinian Prisoners Club confirmed that the Israeli occupation prison administration transferred al-Fasfous from Askalan Prison to the Ramla prison clinic after suffering from serious health conditions amid growing concerns about his deteriorating health.

The prisoner was re-arrested by the Israeli occupation on May 2 and was put in administrative detention. He is a former prisoner who spent about seven years in Israeli prisons.

Al-Fasfous went on a hunger strike at the end of May and the beginning of last June, which lasted for nine days. He had also previously gone on strike in 2021 against his administrative detention, which lasted for 131 days.

The Israeli occupation resorts to the policy of administrative detention as a form of psychological torture and pressure on prisoners. Trial sessions in administrative detention take place in a non-public manner, which deprives prisoners of their right to a public trial.
