Arrested father warns: I won't eat or drink

The 18 families from Judea and Samaria remain separated. Two of the 18 banished fathers were arrested and then inexplicably released, one is still under arrest, and another was arrested today. The arrested father, Meir Bartler from Kol Zion, immediately informed his captors that he was hunger-striking and would not eat or drink.
