RAMALLAH, (PIC)-- Secretary general of the popular front for the liberation of Palestin (PFLP) Ahmed Saadat refused an Israeli request to negotiate with him regarding the hunger strike.
Saadat told a lawyer from Al-Dameer association that a committee from Shabas, the Israeli prison authority, visited him last Tuesday in order to discuss the issue of the collective hunger strike in Israeli jails.
Saadat told the committee members that he would not accept anything less than the demands set by the captive movement and the committee representing the hunger strikers.
The PFLP official also told them that he was not the party that is entitled to talk about this issue, reiterating his commitment to the decisions taken by the hunger strike committee.
