Palestinian Commission of Prisoners’ affairs announced that prisoners held under administrative detention in Israel's Ofer Prison are refusing to eat as they kick start a campaign of hunger strike. The campaign is against their illegal detention at the hand of the Israeli army which is keeping them without any charge or trial. The strike was initially started by five prisoners in Ofer but more detainees are expected to join them by next week. From the occupied territories, Press TV’s Mona Kandil reports.
