GAZA,(PIC)– Waed association for prisoners and ex-prisoners confirmed that the increasing re-arrest of the liberated detainees in Wafa al-Ahrar deal is a flagrant violation of what have been agreed in Wafa al-Ahrar deal through Egyptian mediation.

The Israeli occupation is still practicing its crimes against our people and our prisoners and continues violating agreements with the prisoners where it re-arrested ex-detainees who were freed in Wafa al-Ahrar deal as well as delaying prisoners’ families’ visits and isolating prisoners, Saber Abu Karsh Director of the Association said in Gaza during a press conference on Sunday.

Waed association stated that due to the Israeli violations against the Palestinian prisoners, a number of Palestinian detainees who were liberated in Wafa al-Ahrar deal decided to go on an open hunger strike, including the prisoner Ayman Sharawna, bringing the number of prisoners on hunger strike to four prisoners, Samer Barq, Hassan Safadi, Akram Alrichawi who went on hunger strike for 81 days continuously.

The association called on Egypt the mediator of Wafa al-Ahrar deal and the recent agreement “We will live in dignity” to compel the occupation to fulfill its agreements and to follow-up the implementation of these agreements.

Waed association has considered the sentence of the prisoner Ibrahim Hamed for more than five thousand years as a proof of an Israeli court’s racist criminal measure.

Waed stated in a press release, on Sunday, that this sentence would strengthen the prisoners’ will and determination and would give them more faith that their release and their victory are very soon.
