Occupied Jerusalem - paltoday - Detainees at Nafha prison, made up almost entirely of Palestinians, have undertaken a hunger strike, the Palestinian detainees’ society announced on Tuesday.
The detainee's society announced in a statement that the current hunger strike is a reaction to prison guards performing cell searches at night and preventing detainees from carrying money to purchase food from the prison cafeteria.
Nafha prison, located in Mitzpe Ramon, has seen its detainees pursue hunger strikes on dozens of occasions as a result of prison guard aggression and the deprivation of family visits.
