BETHLEHEM (Ma'an) -- Hana Shalabi has refused food since Feb. 16 in protest against her detention without charge or trial, and Amnesty International says her health is increasingly at risk.
Hana Shalabi’s family have not been allowed to visit her since she was arrested, and they are currently waiting for permission to do so from the Israeli authorities, the rights group said Friday.
It urged those concerned to write to Israeli authorities to give Shalabi immediate access to adequate medical care, and to ensure she is treated humanely at all times, and not punished for her hunger strike.
More urgently, the group is also calling on Israeli authorities to release the detainee and other Palestinians held in administrative detention, unless they are charged with internationally recognized offenses.
She should also have access to her lawyers, doctors, and family, Amnesty said.
