Dozens of Bedouin women in the Israeli-occupied West Bank are on a hunger strike, now in its sixth day, demanding the return of Awdah Al Hathaleen's body for burial in his hometown of Umm al-Khair. Al Hathaleen, a community leader, was killed by a Jewish settler last week. Israeli authorities are imposing conditions on the return of the body, including limiting funeral attendance and a nighttime burial elsewhere, which the villagers refuse. The women's protest also highlights ongoing settler violence and the arrest of several men from the village. The settler suspected of the shooting was quickly released, fueling the women's outrage.
