Prison Struggle in Palestine w/ Milena Ansari A World to Win with Grace Blakeley

This week, Grace speaks to Milena Ansari, international advocacy officer at Addameer (https://www.addameer.org/), the Palestinian prisoner support and human rights organization. They discuss the horrendous practice of administrative detention undertaken against Palestinians by the Israeli state. Palestinians who are suspected of posing a potential threat are detained through a military court without being given any information about the evidence that is held against them, contravening all sorts of human rights including the right to a fair trial.Read more about the recent nineteen-day hunger strike here (https://samidoun.net/2022/10/50-palestinian-prisoners-suspend-hunger-strike-a-new-stage-of-struggle-against-administrative-detention/).
