TEL AVIV – Families of Israeli prisoners
held by Palestinian resistance in Gaza have threatened to begin a hunger strike
after
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu refused to meet with them.

Jo 24 reported, according to the Hebrew
newspaper Yedioth Ahronoth, a hundred families of prisoners held in
Gaza accused Netanyahu of working to divide their ranks "so he won't respond to
their demands."
Ronan Tsour, the media director at the
coordinating office for the families of prisoners held in Gaza, stated that the
families ``decided to confront Netanyahu's attempt to divide them." Tsour
emphasized that the military operation "contradicts efforts to reunite
their families," according to the newspaper.
The families threatened to go on an
indefinite hunger strike and gave Netanyahu until Saturday evening to hold a
meeting with the war cabinet and work on releasing their sons. There was no
immediate response from the Israeli government to the families' threats at the
time of writing.
This comes as the Israeli army announced in
a statement on Friday that three detainees in Gaza were killed accidentally
while they were in the Shuja'iyya neighborhood east of Gaza City.
For seventy-one consecutive days, the
Israeli occupation, with American and European support, has continued its
aggression on Gaza, with its planes targeting the vicinity of hospitals,
buildings, towers, and the homes of Palestinian civilians, destroying them
above their heads.
