| PHROC's letter to Catherine Ashton regarding on-going Prisoners Hunger Strikes |
|
| |
The Palestinian Human Rights Organizations Council (PHROC) sent a letter to The High Representative of the European Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, Vice- President of the European Commission, on the issue of the on-going hunger strikes of Palestinian prisoners in Israeli jails, who are protesting the unjust administrative detention policy which allows Israeli authorities to detain Palestinians without charge or trail, and without being informed of their charges or trial basis based on "secrete evidence".
The letter states that June 1st is the 38th consecutive day for a majority of the strikers, who have reached a critical stage and require immediate intervention. The PHROC and the Ministry of Detainees and Ex-Detainees Affairs called on Ashton to publicly voice concern over Israel's policy of administrative detention and pressure Israel to honor its previous agreements, especially those of 14 May 2014. |

| Legal Analysis to recent decisions by the Israeli Supreme Court |
|
| |
Recently, Israeli Supreme Court issued some decisions to dismiss petitions regarding demolition orders, that were released by the ICA (Israeli Civil Administration), against Bedouin communities in Area “C” .
After reviewing these decisions, while drawing parallel conclusions based on recent developments regarding decisions of other petitioners, JLAC believes that it should revise the Israeli Supreme Court’s decisions and conduct a legal analysis to develop a new legal strategy in order to prevent the court from issuing such decisions in the future.
