Palestinian Prisoners Agree to End Hunger Strike
Navideshahed: Palestinian prisoners in Zionist regime's jails have agreed to end a mass hunger strike after Tel Aviv bowed to their demand for better prison conditions.
The agreement was signed after several hours of negotiations between prison officials and the senior detainees at Ashkelon jail on Monday with the assistance of Egypt.
A Shin Bet spokeswoman said under the deal, those prisoners being held under administrative detention would be released at the end of their current period of detention unless fresh evidence emerged against them.
Administrative detention is a controversial practice used by Tel Aviv which allows Zionist regime authorities to hold people, mostly Palestinians, without charge or trial for up to six months, renewable indefinitely.
Zionist regime has also agreed to return those in solitary confinement to the general population and to permit family visits from both Gaza and the West Bank.
The news of the agreement sparked celebrations in Gaza.
The End
