Today marks the 90th day of Palestinian journalist Mohammed al-Qeeq’s hunger strike. He is held under administrative detention, without charge or trial.

Israel’s Supreme Court ruled earlier this month to temporarily “suspend” al-Qeeq’s detention due to his deteriorating health, but the conditional suspension required that he remains in Israel’s HaEmek hospital in Afula. Mohammed Al-Qeeq has vowed to maintain his strike until transferred a hospital under Palestinian jurisdiction.

On Tuesday 23 February at 2 pm New York time, 7 pm London time, 9 pm Jerusalem time, we will be tweeting our support for Mohammed al-Qeeq and all Palestinian prisoners held in administrative detention. If you use Twitter, please join us. Follow @PSCupdates for the #hashtag.
