Arab terrorists imprisoned in Israel, referred to as “security prisoners” made good on their threats Wednesday morning 23 Nissan 5773 and refused to accept their breakfast. On Tuesday they announced they are going to launch a hunger strike in response to the death of a Hamas terrorist in Soroka Medical Center. Despite the fact he died of cancer, the death was used by the PA (Palestinian Authority) to incite another round of violence and protests against Israel.

Israel Prison Authority officials reported on Wednesday morning that the evening and night passed without incident following violent disturbances in a number of prisons on Tuesday morning after the announced death of the Hamas terrorist.
