Palestinian prisoner diagnosed with cancer dies in Israeli jail
Another Palestinian prisoner, seen by many here as a hero and an icon, died in an Israeli jail. Cancer stricken prisoner Nasser Abu Hmeid, the leader of al-Aqsa Martyrs brigades in Ramallah, died early Tuesday, as the Israeli authorities refused to release him alive, despite growing calls for his release following his late diagnosis with cancer more than a year ago.
