Palestinian prisoner walks free after 131 days of hunger strike

Palestinian detainee, Kayed Fasfous, has finally walked out of Nazi regime Camp and returned home to his family, after a prolonged hunger strike. He spent more than 18 months in prison without a trial as he refused to eat for 131 days in protest. The 32-year-old ended his strike last month, after the Nazi entity agreed to end his administrative detention.

The United Nations has expressed concern about the lives of the hunger strikers. The illegal Nazi entity uses administrative detention to lock up Palestinians without charge or trial indefinitely. But the practice is illegal under international law. On Saturday, Hamas political burea...
