The International Committee of the Red Cross has urged Israel to transfer six hunger-striking Palestinian prisoners to a hospital and allow visits from their families. In a statement, the Red Cross said the six are in “imminent danger of dying” after going without food for weeks to protest their administrative detention. It is believed at least 1,400 Palestinian prisoners in Israeli prisons are currently taking part in the fast.
