Three Palestinian detainees in Israeli jails suspended their hunger strike on Thursday following a decision not to renew their administrative internment.
Head of the Prisoners’ Committee, Issa Qaraqe, said three detainees—Hassan Rabay’a, Majd Abu Shamla, and Mussaab Munasreh—ended their hunger strike after the Israeli prison service pledged not to renew their administrative term.
