RAMALLAH, Oct. 29 (Xinhua) -- A Palestinian jailed in an Israeli prison on Monday ended a 58-day hunger strike after an Israeli court agreed to release him next month, the prisoner's wife told Xinhua.
Randa Adnan, wife of the prisoner Khader Adnan, said her husband decided to stop his hunger strike after an Israeli court verdict to release him in two weeks.
The Palestinian Prisoner Club Association confirmed in a statement that an Israeli military court decided on Monday to release Adnan after two weeks.
Adnan, 40 and affiliated with the Palestinian Islamic Jihad (Holy War), was arrested on Dec. 11, and begun a hunger strike in protest of his administrative detention 58 days ago.
His wife earlier said Adnan's health had been deteriorating over the past 58 days, as he decided to stop drinking liquids.
Adnan has become a famous prisoner who often goes on a hunger strike to exert pressure on Israel to release him.
He went on a hunger strike in 2012 and 2015, and made a record in hunger strikes for 66 days.
