Israel Reneges on Hunger Strike Agreement, Palestinian Prisoners May Renew Strike
• http://www.commondreams.org, Common Dreams staffUp to 2,000 Palestinian prisoners in Israel had ended a hunger strike on May 14 after Israeli authorities agreed to allow visits from relatives in Gaza, transfer of detainees out of solitary confinement, and a curb to administrative detention, a procedure that allows suspects to be held without charge or trial indefinitely.
Accusing Israel of already going back on its promises, prisoners have now begun to threaten the prospects of a renewed hunger strike.
