Palestinian journalist Mohammed al-Qiq has ended a 94-day hunger strike in protest against his detention without charge after a deal was reached for Israel to drop his detention.
Al-Qiq, a 33-year-old from Ramallah who had been near death in recent days, will not be released immediately but will remain in an Israeli medical centre in Afula until 21 May, where he will receive treatment.

Al-Qiq has been surviving on water alone after refusing to take essential minerals.
Al-Qiq began his hunger strike on 25 November last year after he was detained without charge at his home in Ramallah on 21 November.

This is good new :applaudThe practice of administrative detention has always been a controversial topic among both Israelis and Palestinians. I personally think its an unjust practice that is abused by the state of Israel. I think the Israeli government should put a stop to the practice of administrative detentions and either release such prisoners or put him on trial.
