Ahmad Rimawi, a 20 year old released detainee died last night after falling off a water tank and hitting his head on an edge of a door at his grandparents’ house in Obwain village.

Ahmad Rimawi was released from the Israeli occupation prisons after spending 27 months in detention. He was the youngest administrative detainee and joined the mass open hunger strike launched by administrative detainees in 2014.

Ahmad is the son of Ishraq Rimawi, who is currently serving a 19-year sentence in the prisons of the occupation.
