The Israeli Prison Authority renewed, Thursday, the Administrative Detention order against a hunger striking Palestinian detainee, for three additional months, without charges or trial.
The Palestinian Prisoners Society (PPS) said detainee Nidal Abu Aker, 46, who is also a journalist and an anchor at the al-Wehda Radio Station, is determined to continue the hunger strike he started on August 20.
The detainee is demanding his release, since his imprisonment is under arbitrary orders without charges.
Abu 'Aker, from the Deheishe refugee camp in the West Bank city of Bethlehem, is a married father of three children.
The Palestinian Detainees' Committee said the Israeli Prison Administration is still pressuring six hunger-striking detainees, who started their strike more than 20 days ago, by keeping them held in solitary confinement, and repeatedly transferring them to different prisons, in order to prevent their lawyers from visiting them.
The Committee added it has asked the International Red Cross to intervene, and ensure the detainees are hospitalized and receiving the needed medical attention.
Lawyer Yousef Nasasra, of the Detainees' Committee, stated on Wednesday that Abu 'Aker was moved from solitary confinement in Holi Kidar prison, to solitary confinement in Ramla prison in Beersheba (Be'er as-Sabe',) before being moved to Asqalan Prion, and later to Ayela.
The detainee is suffering from several health issues in his stomach and intestines, in addition to high-cholesterol. He used to take five types of medications, and previously had platinum implant surgeries in his legs.
It is worth mentioning that Abu 'Aker spent more than 13 years under administrative detention orders, and his latest administrative detention order was supposed to expire on September 11, but was renewed today, Thursday.
Abu 'Aker, and the rest of the hunger striking detainees, are refusing to take any medications or vitamins, and are only drinking water.

Dadon, left, and her killer Khalifa, right
Hussein Khalifa convicted in the murder of 19-year-old Shelly Dadon from Afula; judges called him a 'heinous murdered who murdered Shelly at a very young age'; Dadon's mother: 'She was murdered because she was Jewish.'
Taxi driver Hussein Khalifa was convicted on Wednesday of the murder of 19-year-old Shelly Dadon and was sentenced to life in prison. The court also ordered him to pay NIS 258,000 in compensation to Dadon's family.
Before the reading of the sentencing, Khalifa, who was arrested on June 16, maintained that he "didn't do anything." Dadon's father Yaakov, meanwhile, said before the beginning of the court hearing that he expected the murderer's home to be demolished "like every other terrorist's home." He called for the maximum punishment. "It's a shame there's no death sentence, like in every other normal country, but I expect him to get life in prison."
The state recognized the murder as a nationalistically motivated crime, even though that was not expressed in the indictment.
Dadon left her home in Afula on May 1, 2014, for a job interview in Migdal Ha'emek. Her body was found several hours later in a parking lot in the Ramat Gavriel industrial area. Police from Migdal Ha'emek found her body during a routine patrol at around 3pm the next day. They saw stab wounds on the body, and, suspecting a murder, called in heavy reinforcements.
A police investigation showed that on the day of her murder, Shelly's father Yaakov drove her to the junction at Afula Illit, from where she was meant to travel by bus to Migdal Ha'emek. She never arrived to her job interview. As far as police know, Dadon got as far as the city center, and then took a taxi ride to her death.
During her cab drive, Dadon started feeling unease and fear the driver. She called her cousin and whispered, "I'm in a taxi, a scary one," adding that she was so scared she could not breathe.
Instead of taking her to her job interview, Khalifa, who worked a taxi shuttle service for workers at factories in Migdal Ha'emek, drove Shelly to an abandoned parking lot on the outskirts of the industrial zone where he stabbed her 17 times "all over her body, in different depths, that clearly show the accused intended to kill her," the judges wrote in their verdict. During his trial, Khalifa claimed he stabbed Dadon only six times, in "non-lethal places." The judges rejected that claim.
Dadon tried to fight him off by scratching at him, and tried to defend herself with her arms, to no avail.
"For several horrible minutes, during which she was dragged by him from one place to another, the accused forcibly and mercilessly stabbed Shelly," the judges wrote in their verdict.
Khalifa then dumped her body, which was then found by police. After murdering Dadon, Khalifa drove away from the scene, washed her blood from the car, and threw away her cell phone and purse near the Arab village of Beit Zarzir, in northern Israel.
Dadon's father and other family members tried unsuccessfully to contact Shelly from 9am on May 2. Eventually Yaakov Dadon went to the police, who asked him to describe his daughter. He was soon told that she had been found dead in Migdal Ha'emek, and taken to the scene, where he identified his daughter's body.
Shortly after the murder, several Bedouin youth were arrested after using Dadon's credit card, but it later transpired that they found her bag after Khalifa ditched it, and they were released.
Khalifa was arrested a month after the murder following intense detective work by the Central Unit of the Israel Police's Northern District. Investigators checked every taxi in the area, reviewed hundreds of security cameras, and experts recovered information from her cellphone that was thrown into the bushes outside the parking lot.
Lab work done after Khalifa's arrest found two additional important pieces of evidence: Traces of Dadon's blood were found in the front seat's filling. In addition, DNA traces left under Dadon's nail, which was found in the scene of the crime, matched Khalifa's DNA.
During his interrogation, Khalifa admitted to the crimes attributed to him and even reenacted the murder, but he cut the reenactment short and decided to go back on his confession.
Dadon's mother, Ilana yelled at the killer: "How could you stab her so many times? How could you leave her there in a puddle of her own blood? Did she call out for me? You did all of this out of empty hatred, because she was a Jew."
The mother added, "This disgusting murderer deserves to suffer in pain, the same way we are suffering. Treat him as you would a terrorist."
After the reading of the verdict, Judge Asher Kula said: "We believe that there is no need to impose an additional cumulative punishment on the accused, as that would be a devaluation of the life sentence ... We heard the mother, we paid heed to her pain and her call to prosecute the accused to the fullest extent."
Hussein Khalifa convicted in the murder of 19-year-old Shelly Dadon from Afula; judges called him a 'heinous murdered who murdered Shelly at a very young age'; Dadon's mother: 'She was murdered because she was Jewish.'
Taxi driver Hussein Khalifa was convicted on Wednesday of the murder of 19-year-old Shelly Dadon and was sentenced to life in prison. The court also ordered him to pay NIS 258,000 in compensation to Dadon's family.
Before the reading of the sentencing, Khalifa, who was arrested on June 16, maintained that he "didn't do anything." Dadon's father Yaakov, meanwhile, said before the beginning of the court hearing that he expected the murderer's home to be demolished "like every other terrorist's home." He called for the maximum punishment. "It's a shame there's no death sentence, like in every other normal country, but I expect him to get life in prison."
The state recognized the murder as a nationalistically motivated crime, even though that was not expressed in the indictment.
Dadon left her home in Afula on May 1, 2014, for a job interview in Migdal Ha'emek. Her body was found several hours later in a parking lot in the Ramat Gavriel industrial area. Police from Migdal Ha'emek found her body during a routine patrol at around 3pm the next day. They saw stab wounds on the body, and, suspecting a murder, called in heavy reinforcements.
A police investigation showed that on the day of her murder, Shelly's father Yaakov drove her to the junction at Afula Illit, from where she was meant to travel by bus to Migdal Ha'emek. She never arrived to her job interview. As far as police know, Dadon got as far as the city center, and then took a taxi ride to her death.
During her cab drive, Dadon started feeling unease and fear the driver. She called her cousin and whispered, "I'm in a taxi, a scary one," adding that she was so scared she could not breathe.
Instead of taking her to her job interview, Khalifa, who worked a taxi shuttle service for workers at factories in Migdal Ha'emek, drove Shelly to an abandoned parking lot on the outskirts of the industrial zone where he stabbed her 17 times "all over her body, in different depths, that clearly show the accused intended to kill her," the judges wrote in their verdict. During his trial, Khalifa claimed he stabbed Dadon only six times, in "non-lethal places." The judges rejected that claim.
Dadon tried to fight him off by scratching at him, and tried to defend herself with her arms, to no avail.
"For several horrible minutes, during which she was dragged by him from one place to another, the accused forcibly and mercilessly stabbed Shelly," the judges wrote in their verdict.

The Palestinian prisoner Nahil Abu Eisha was transferred to Soroka Hospital after suffering a very serious health deterioration, the Palestinian Prisoner Society (PPS) said Wednesday.
Nahil, 37, suffers from many health problems including colon and rheumatism, causing her severe joint pain.
The sick female prisoner was detained on March 14, 2013 and sentenced to 33 months imprisonment plus a fine of 2,000 shekels.
Palestinian female prisoners and detainees are routinely exposed to physical and psychological torture, in violation of the humanitarian law. Mothers are disconnected from their families and young female prisoners grow up within jails.
Since 1967, it is estimated that more than 15,000 Palestinian women were arrested by Israel. Article 27 of the Fourth Geneva Convention asserts that women should enjoy special protection, a right ignored by Israel.

Nine Palestinian prisoners are on hunger strike in Israeli jails in protest against Israeli administrative detention and isolation policies, Waad association for prisoners and ex-prisoners said Tuesday.
Bilal Dawood continues his hunger strike for the 11th day running, while Amir Shamas and Nour Shukri continue their hunger strike for the 6th day in rejection of their administrative detention.
Nidal Abu Aker, Munir Abu Sharar, Badr al-Ruzza, Ghassan Zawahreh, Shadi Ma’ali, and Suleiman Skafi are also engaged in hunger strike for 20 days demanding an end to the administrative detention policy.
Waad association called on the High Commissioner for Human Rights and the International Committee of the Red Cross to immediately intervene for the release of the hunger strikers.
In the same context, four human-rights organizations, including HaMoked and Physicians for Human Rights-Israel, have petitioned the HCJ against the law of force feeding hunger-striking Palestinian prisoners: “A law intended to break hunger strikers and silence their protest”.
In the petition, the organizations said that the Amendment poses itself as legislation concerned with saving the lives of hunger strikers, whereas in fact its very essence is to break hunger strikes by prisoners and silence their protest.
The organizations further said that the Amendment contradicts the Patient Rights Act, medical ethics and international law – the legal and ethical framework that has guided physicians before the Amendment.
Moreover, the Amendment establishes a separate medical norm for Palestinian prisoners, allows the subjection of medical decisions to security-political considerations, and grants immunity to medical professionals who act against their ethical-medical commitments towards their patients.
The petition also elaborates on why the procedure of force feeding hunger strikers constitutes cruel, inhumane and degrading treatment that might amount to torture, all of which are prohibited under both Israeli and international law.
The petition was filed as part of a long struggle waged by these organizations, headed by Physicians for Human Rights-Israel, from the very first stages of the bill, a bill seeking to misuse physicians in order to avoid negotiations with hunger strikers protesting against arbitrary and harmful policies and practices employed by the Israeli government (foremost, administrative detention).
