Hundreds of people gathered in Ramallah in front of the Red Cross headquarters and in front of Ofer Prison in support of the Palestinian prisoners on hunger strike.
A wave of hunger-strike by Palestinians jailed in Israel peaked two weeks ago, when over a thousand detainees joined long-term hunger-strikers on Palestinian Prisoners Day.
Prisoners groups estimate 2,000 detainees are now refusing food in a bid to improve their conditions.
