Palestinians kill Israeli civilian in West Bank store

He is protesting being held by Israel in administrative detention since November 24. He now is hospitalized in HaEmek Medical Center in Afula. Does it rest with the President of the Supreme Court, whose colleagues have concocted a new legal myth – a person who is not free, yet is not detained? The hospital agreed to receive Qiq if he authorized the transfer.

“We will consider revoking press cards from journalists and editors who are negligent in their work and give headlines that are opposite from reality”, Nitzan Chen, the head of the Government Press Office, wrote on Facebook on February 3. Painting a troubling picture of the situation during a quarterly briefing to the 15-nation body, Nickolay Mladenov, Secretary-Generals Special Coordinator for the Middle East Peace Process, said that the conflict has now arrived at a pivotal point.

In his statement, emailed to media by the Prisoner’s Club, Boulos added that from the moment the court suspended the administrative detention order there remained no legal basis to obstruct al-Qiq’s movements.

“As an unconvicted detainee, al-Qiq has the right to treatment by doctors of his choice”.

Since 1 October, Palestinian knife, gun and car-ramming attacks have taken the lives of 25 Israelis, an American and an Eritrean, according to an AFP count.

Under an Israeli law held over from British colonial rule, hospitals are required to hand over information on patients deemed by authorities to be criminal suspects. Herzog also called for a freeze on West Bank settlement expansion outside the major Israeli settlement blocs.

Booth’s detention follows a spate of three attempted terrorist attacks in the area in less than 48 hours, including a thwarted knife assault on Tuesday morning.

Israel’s defense minister on Thursday said Israeli forces “cannot be trigger happy” in the face of relentless attacks by Palestinians, echoing similar remarks by the country’s military chief a day earlier.

“There is no difference between Afula and al-Makassid hospital for al-Qiq”, Ahmad Abu Muhammad of the Palestinian Prisoners’ Society in Bethlehem told Ma’an.

“We are in an open-ended strike, there is no specific number of days, our strike is linked with the developments, meaning that if Mohammed al-Qeeq remains on his hunger strike for days or weeks, [then] we will continue the same hunger strike and will not stop”, Salah told Anadolu Agency.
