WEST BANK (Dispatches) – Palestinian detainee Khalil Awawde, who has been on hunger strike for 111 days, agreed to end his hunger strike on Tuesday, after reaching a deal with the Zionist regime authorities of his release. However, according to the Palestinian High Commission for Prisoners’ Affairs, the regime authorities have not confirmed the date. Khalil, a father of four, was detained on 27 December 2021, and placed so-called in administrative detention – a policy that allows the regime authorities to detain Palestinians for a renewable period of six months without charge or trial.

“We received news from Khalil’s lawyer that he had ended his hunger strike, but without any details on the terms reached with Israeli authorities,” Dalal, Awawdeh’s wife, told the New Arab.
