The committee of the Arab Fund to support the Palestinian and Arab Prisoners in the Israeli Occupation Prisons, an affiliate to the Arab League (AL), held a meeting here on Tuesday.
The meeting tackled the ongoing projects to support the families of the detainees in Israeli prisons as well as the ex-detainees, said AL Assistant Secretary General for Palestine and Other Occupied Lands Affairs Mohamed Sobieh.
The fund was set up in 2012 with the aim of putting pressure on Israel to observe international legal rights of Palestinians detained in its jails, he added.
