Palestinian prisoners Al-Ghadanfar Abu Atwan and Khaled Muhammad Makhmarah continue their open-ended hunger strike to protest the ongoing crimes of the Israeli occupation against the Palestinian prisoners in its detention centers.

The Palestinian Prisoners and Editors Affairs Authority stated in a statement today, carried by WAFA, that the prisoner Abu Atwan, 28, who has been detained since last October, has continued his hunger strike for the nineteenth day in a row, and that the prisoner of Mkhamara 26 years who has been detained since 2016 is continuing his hunger strike for the ninth consecutive day.
