Thousands of Palestinians have rallied in the West Bank city of Ramallah in solidarity with hunger-striking Palestinian prisoners held by Israel.
Protesters gathered in Nelson Mandela Square on Wednesday May 03,2017, chanting "Freedom, freedom" and waving Palestinian flags and posters of Marwan Barghouti, leader of the hunger strike, currently in its 17th day.
More than 1,500 prisoners launched the action on April 17 to press for better conditions, including family visits, better medical care and an end to solitary confinement and administrative detention.
