Two Palestinian institutions announced, on Wednesday, the death of a detainee from Nour Shams camp, in the city of Tulkarm, north of the occupied West Bank, in Israeli prisons.

This came in a joint statement by the Commission of Prisoners' Affairs and the Palestinian Prisoners' Club.

The two institutions said that the Civil Affairs Authority (an official contact point with Israel) informed them of "the death of detainee Muhammad Walid Hussein Ali (45 years old) from Nour Shams camp."

They pointed out that prisoner Hussein Ali, "has been detained since November 28, and is a former prisoner who spent about 20 years in the occupation's prisons."
