Palestinian prisoner dies in Israel after long hunger strikeIsrael's prison service says a Palestinian prisoner has died after a hunger strike of nearly three months. Khader Adnan began his strike shortly after being arrested on Feb. 5. Adnan, accused by Israel of membership in the Islamic Jihad militant group, had gone on hunger strikes several times after previous arrests. That included a 55-day strike in 2015 to protest his arrest under so-called administrative detention, in which suspects are held indefinitely without charge or trial. Israel’s prison service said Adnan had been charged this time with “involvement in terrorist activities” but had refused medical treatment while legal proceedings moved forward.
