The Waed Association for Prisoners reported that prisoner Zakaria Al-Zubaidi, who is currently in Nafha Prison, has announced a hunger strike in solidarity with other administrative prisoners who are also on hunger strike. 

This announcement comes after around 30 administrative prisoners enter the 14th consecutive day in their open hunger strike in rejection of the policy of administrative detention imposed by occupation authorities.
