A Palestinian man held without charge has been released from Israeli custody after a hunger strike that lasted for more than two months.

In a brief statement to the official Palestine TV, Abu Atwan paid tribute to the Palestinian prisoners in Israeli jails who supported him during his hunger strike, led by his uncle Munif Abu Atwan, who is serving life imprisonment.More Related News
