Israel's Supreme Court on Monday rejected a Palestinian hunger striker's request to be moved to the Palestinian Authority (PA)-assigned areas Judea and Samaria for treatment, but said he could be transferred to eastern Jerusalem, AFP reported.
The court gave the hunger striker, journalist, Mohammed al-Qiq, until 10:00 a.m. on Tuesday to decide whether to agree to his transfer from hospital in northern Israel to Jerusalem's Palestinian-run Makassed Hospital.
