In Israeli jails

" In December, Randa Adnan said, her husband weighed just over 200 pounds. Visiting him in an Israeli hospital this week, Randa said, she found her 33-year-old spouse, Khader Adnan, now weighs no more than 121 pounds.  "It is something beyond description, as there is no sign of life in him -- this is how I found him," she said. The dramatic and life-threatening loss of weight comes as Khader Adnan passes day 55 in a hunger strike to protest his arrest and detention by Israeli security personnel on December 17 of last year."
