The Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) — Kayed’s political party — announced, on June 24th, that Israeli authorities transferred dozens of PFLP prisoners on hunger strike in solidarity with Keyed from Megiddo prison to other Israeli prisons. A few PFLP prisoners that remain in Megiddo were placed solitary confinement. Others are being deprived of family visitation and subject to frequent cell raids. [http://bit.ly/28U6JUH]
