Mass marches have broken out in #Ramallah from Al-Am'ari camp in support of the resistance in the West Bank and Gaza. Resistant youth have called for a general strike and intifada, and have closed off a number of streets in neighboring towns and camps with burning tires.

"The masses want Al-Qassam Brigades!"
"Brigades! Steadfast in the tunnels! Fighters!"
"Salute to the Brigade in beloved Jenin!"
"We are the men of Mohammed Deif!"
"You will see shrapnel from the actions of Saraya!"
"Salute from Al-Ama'ri camp!"
"Long live Mohammed Deif!"

Hanan Saleh Abdullah Barghouti, Umm Anad, 59, from Kobar village in the Ramallah area, was ordered to an additional three months in administrative detention -- arbitrary imprisonment without charge or trial -- on 3 September 2024. This is the third three-month detention order issued by the occupation regime to Hanan after she was abducted by the occupation forces on 5 March 2024.

Hanan had been held in administrative detention initially since September 2023; she was liberated on 24 November 2023, as part of the prisoner exchange secured by the Palestinian Resistance in Gaza. After four months, she was once again abducted by occupation soldiers invading her home.

Hanan’s husband, Abdullah Barghouti, Abu Anad, is also held in administrative detention without charge or trial after Zionist occupation soldiers abducted him on 1 August, ordering him to three months in administrative detention on 7 August 2024. Hanan and Abdullah are the parents of three imprisoned sons, Abdullah, Omar and Islam. Their son Anad was just released from administrative detention on 15 August.

Hanan Barghouti is also the sister of the longest-held Palestinian prisoner, Nael Barghouti, who has been held by the occupation regime for over 44 years. Nael was already one of the longest-held Palestinian prisoners when he was released in the Wafa al-Ahrar exchange, only to be re-abducted three years later.

Hanan and Nael Barghouti are also siblings of Omar Barghouthi, Abu ‘Asif, who spent more than 30 years in occupation prisons. Omar was a beloved long-term leader of the prisoners’ movement who spent over 27 years in occupation prisons. He passed away in 2021. Omar’s son Saleh was assassinated by the Zionist regime in 2018 and his son Asem sentenced to four life sentences in occupation prisons.

Upon her liberation from Zionist prisons in the exchange achieved by the Palestinian resistance, Hanan said: “We tell the children of Gaza that we will meet in heaven and victory is yours."

The abduction of and repeated administrative detention orders against Hanan Barghouti are part and parcel of an attack against liberated prisoners, especially those released in the exchange with the Palestinian resistance. Multiple Palestinian women liberated in the exchange have been re-arrested, including Hanan as well as Walaa Tanja, Dania Hanatsheh, Aseel Samih Khader, and Yasmeen Shaaban (who was released hours later), while both Fadwa Hamadeh and Nofouth Hammad were summoned for interrogation.

Hanan Barghouti is a symbol of resistance and steadfastness. Despite multiple medical issues, including high blood pressure and diabetes, she is at the forefront of every demonstration for the release of the prisoners and the liberation of Palestine. The wife, mother, sister and aunt of prisoners and freedom fighters, she has always refused to remain silent even in face of threats of arrest, declaring after her liberation: “The resistance is God's hand on earth. As long as our resistance is well, we will remain well and we will continue to support the resistance with our children, our souls and our blood.”

Freedom for Hanan Barghouthi and all Palestinian prisoners!
