'No Other Land' murder: Women in Awdah Hathaleen's village launch hunger strike

Over 70 women in the West Bank village of Umm al-Khair have launched a hunger strike to protest Israeli authorities. They demand the return of the body of Awdah Hathaleen, a Palestinian teacher and activist who was killed, and the release of residents arrested following his murder. Hathaleen was allegedly shot by an Israeli settler, and authorities have refused to return his body for a proper funeral, offering it only under restrictive conditions. The killing and subsequent protests occur amid what human rights organizations describe as escalating state-backed settler violence and displacement of Palestinians in the occupied West Bank.
